Abstract
On Thursday, March 5, 1964, 170 Berea students and 30 faculty and townspeople joined approximately 10,000 other demonstrators for a March on Frankfort. At the March, demonstrators listened to speeches by Frank Stanley Jr., Martin Luther King, Jr., Jackie Robinson, D.E. King, and Ralph Abernathy. Speakers pleaded for the Governor Breathitt and state legislature to consider seriously the House-sponsored Public Accomodations Bill.
