Item Description
14x22". Image of Mississippi State Trooper with eyes fixed in a gaze and text reading "Is He Protecting You". Photo has photographer's name in small lettering and larger type for the Georgia headquarters address of Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee. Poster shows zone number rather than Zip Code so is likely c.1962. SNCC began in 1960 with $800 grant from the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. The group organized citizens at segregated lunch counters, freedom rides and was active in 1963 March on Washington, Mississippi Freedom Summer and Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. Five vertical folds with only the center one being deep. Others are likely a result of being rolled and lightly pressed. Otherwise only moderate handling wear most noticeable at top center. Fine. Scarce.
