Protest at the People's House - Photo 6

Anti-war demonstrators march outside the White House on January 19, 1968. Their signs read, "No More...Stop the War!" and "Eartha Kitt Speaks for the Women of America." Kitt, a well-known African American actress, singer, and activist, caused a media sensation when she attended a luncheon at the White House and vocally challenged the president's policies in Vietnam.
