NPR Talks to 6 Marchers from the 1963 March On Washington
We’re very thanks to the folks at NPR and to A. Peter Bailey, Courtland Cox, Sondra Hassan, Todd Endo, Daniel Serwer, and Edith Lee-Payne for sharing their experiences and memories. From NPR on YouTube:
In 1963, hundreds of thousands of demonstrators gathered in Washington, D.C. for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. We talked to six marchers about what they remember from that day and how they feel, 57 years later, about the nationwide Black Lives Matter protests in the wake of George Floyd’s killing.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
