Capital Is Aware Of Race Tension After Big March
Washington faced ongoing race tensions after the city’s largest protest. About 3000 demonstrators, black and white, marched along Pennsylvania Avenue after prayers near the White House. The event secured a housing bias pledge and progress on anti discrimination in hiring, with plans for a sit in on Capitol Hill during the summer civil rights debate. Police reported one arrest as the crowd, including white bystanders and children, dispersed peacefully.
