Captured moment in time by: Photographer Guy Crowder, 1940-2011
Los Angeles, Calif., 1963
On May 26, 1963, at what is well known as the “Los Angeles Freedom Rally”, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929 – 1968) addressed nearly 40,000 people, one of the largest civil rights rallies in the country, at Wrigley Field in South Los Angeles, LA’s first baseball stadium to the Los Angeles Angels.
Here, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Ralph Abernathy and Sammy Davis Jr. share a laugh - civil rights icons sharing a light moment from stress of the work they were doing. This photo captures a moment in time and shows another side of them.
After this event, there was an evening reception for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, attended by many Hollywood figures regardless of race. Fundraising and other support were provided by noted figures in Los Angeles. In attendance amongst many others: Marlon Brando, Anthony Franciosa, Ralph Abernathy, Paul Newman, Polly Bergen, Joanne Woodward, and Sammy Davis Jr.
