Rustin

Bayard Rustin, architect of the momentous 1963 March on Washington, is one of history's most remarkable activists and strategists. Always defiant, Rustin never apologized for who he was, for his beliefs or for his sexual orientation. He never took a step back. He made history... and his reward was to be forgotten. Along with other giants like Martin Luther King Jr., Adam Clayton Powell Jr. and Ella Baker, Bayard Rustin dared to imagine a different world and inspired an entire movement on a march to freedom.
