and they won the right to march on pennsylvania avenue. "the washington post", no fan of suffrage, supported their claim by equating the suffragists to any other citizen -- male or female. and, likewise, in 1932, when veterans of world war i came to washington seeking immediate payment of what they considered their just compensation for serving the country during world war i, the march that became known as the bonus march, when they came in 1932, they were tolerated. they were treated with kindness, president hoover arranged for the army to give them tents, a place to camp, opened up a navy hospital for them to be treated. the superintendent of police at that time actually had the distinct and somewhat strange role of being both the police chief of washington and the treasurer of the group behind the bonus march. so he was simultaneously in charge of policing them and making sure that their financial arrangements stayed on the up and up. so there grew to be a more common acceptance of the idea the political protest was something that was a

tying themselves to a tradition of display of good virtue and also of military parades down pennsylvania avenues were a common occurrence. but nevertheless when there was controversy where they should para parade, a police suggested it was not the right place for dignified women and instead they marched down 16th avenue which he saw as a respectable location -- 16th street, sorry. as a respectable location. they protested vehemently and they won the right to march on pennsylvania avenue. and "the washington post," no fan of sufferage, supported their claim equating it to any other citizen, male or female. and likewise, in 1932, when veterans of world war i came to washington seeking immediate payment of what they considered their just compensation for serving the country during world war i, the march that became known as the bonus march, when they came in 1932, they were tolerated. they were treated with kindness, president hoover arranged for the army to give them tents, a place to camp. opened up the navy hospital for them to be treated. the superintendent of police at that time, a man named p

the notion of african-americans marching peaceably up pennsylvania avenue and then assembling at the lincoln memorial, using that space to display their place in the nation when that place was so treated unequally, was incredibly powerful. but could it be recreated? and this is what i will conclude with, is to think some about could that happen again, that special power? there were special circumstances, it was the eve of war. it was a situation in which there were grounds to negotiate. it was a situation in which you had extremely savvy organizers who were willing to play a very tough game. and in its wake, in some ways, i think that potential was no longer as possible. and if we think about the 1963 march just briefly, and some of the characteristics of it, we can think about why that potential became less powerful. on one hand, one thing that became clear is that future presidents did not want to be put in this position. and they decided that would be better to not get so concerned about any potential demonstration, that they would need to go to such efforts to force its cancelati
