It was remarkable for the size of the crowds and for its non-violence. The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom took place on August 28, 1963. By most accounts, there was no trouble of any kind. More than 200,000 Americans, both black and white, gathered there for a political rally, to hear an inspiring speech by Martin Luther King (the famous "I Have a Dream" speech) and to unite in taking a stand against racism.
