One of the defining moments of the Civil Rights movement took place in 1966 when leader James Meredith was shot during a peaceful demonstration. The images of him wounded and crawling to safety are some of the most enduring in American history with this being a completely original specimen in fine condition. This particular angle showing Meredith laying and waiting for help is one we have never seen offered before!
