Randolph and Rustin
Why did you remove the key organizers names from the article about the march on washington?
What was there:
A large 100,000 person march was first contemplated in 1941 by A. Philip Randolph along with the support of Bayard Rustin and a white dutch immigrant named A.J. Muste. After more than two decades in development, in 1962 A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin would manage to organize an enormous group of civil rights, labor, and religious organizations, under the banner of "jobs, and freedom". Estimates of the number of participants varies from 200,000 to 300,000; Observers estimated that 75–80% of the marchers were black.
What you left in it's place:
The march was organized by a group of civil rights, labor, and religious organizations, under the banner of "jobs, and freedom". Estimates of the number of participants varied from 200,000 to 300,000; it is widely accepted that approximately 250,000 people participated in the march. Observers estimated that 75–80% of the marchers were black. --Potguru (talk) 04:20, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
