The March on Washington in 1963 was one that was meant to bring attention to the injustice African-Americans faced in the United States. This march, attended by over 250,000 citizens, was hoping to bring about equality in the job search and freedom in general. At this event, Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous "I Have a Dream" speech.

All of the speeches given that day and the protesting that ensued was all created in hopes that the US Congress would pass the Civil Rights Act. This act, would help to bring legal and political equality to African-Americans all over the United States. This would also help African-Americans from facing discrimination in the workplace and in the hiring process.
