Relive a landmark moment in the Civil Rights Movement when, in 1960, Jewish and Black people came together to protest the racially segregated Glen Echo Amusement Park. When five Howard University students sat on a segregated Maryland carousel in 1960, the arrests made headlines. When the predominantly Jewish community near the Park joined the Black students in picketing, the first organized interracial civil rights protest in US history was born.
