#DidYouKnow: Bayard Rustin dropped everything and came to Memphis to honor his friend, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 

Known for his expertise in nonviolent protest and coalition-building, Rustin played a key role in organizing the April 8th #silentmarch. His leadership helped ensure the event was both peaceful and powerful—turning grief into purposeful action.

Discover Bayard Rustin’s impactful contributions to the Civil Rights Movement in our NEW exhibition, #SpeakingTruthToPower: The Life of Bayard Rustin.
