    Notice how the flag has 48 stars.

    Notice how the flag has 48 stars. Well, that would make sense given that this photo was taken 20 years before Alaska and Hawaii were admitted to the Union.
  • Tony Colonello said:
    It's amazing to think they were still denied the basic rights promised them in the 13th Amendment they still loved this country enough to have this parade.
  • Jason A G said:
    I really appreciate a former era when adults dressed like adults, rather than overgrown children. No one is wearing message T shirts, shorts, flip flops, ball caps, or any of that nonsense. Though they may be poor, they have dressed for the occasion and don't look like children, they have dressed as adults.

    Ummmm, what about the segregation? That doesn't bother you but flip flops do? You must be from this era.

    This is a beautiful photo.
  • Rob said:
    One thing about these photos that strikes me: In the black (or "negro") photos, you get he sense that if you we're to stumble upon this gathering, you would most likely be welcomed. On the other hand the photos of the scowling, predominantly all-male "mountaineers," we'll, they don't seem like a very hospitable bunch.
