That was unfortunate. Whether the organizers of last weekendâs rally knew it or not, the 1963 March on Washington inspired some of the pioneering activists who created the modern-day environmental movement. Some of those environmentalists participated in the civil rights movement that birthed the 1963 March.

There were signs that the organizers of last weekendâs rally were again trying to connect the dots.
