The photograph at top is a plaque commemorating Freedom Place, a four-block long street between 66th and 70th Streets, running west and parallel of West End Avenue, in Manhattan. The plaque, dedicated by the West Side Civil Rights Committee in 1967, reads, "In memory of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, Michael Schwerner, who on June 21, 1964 in Philadelphia, Mississippi gave their lives in the unending struggle for freedom and democracy."
