1963 Extremely rare photograph of a billboard erected in Selma, Alabama as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led protests for voting rights and marches, attempted at smearing his character among the locals. It shows King in a crowd and is claiming he was a communist. A rare piece of Civil Rights history that shows the alternate, darker side of history!
