Throwback Thursday: Charles B. Washington and Angela Davis

Happy Juneteenth #ThrowbackThursday!

Charles B. Washington and Angela Davis are sitting together on a television studio set in this 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ color photograph. “At Omaha” is visible on a red framed object on the wall behind them. The time stamp on the Kodak photographic paper reads “May 75”.

This image is published and owned by theĀ Omaha Public Library. They have a large collection of 1,100+ postcards and photographs of the Omaha area, as well as the Charles B. Washington Collection, comprising items relating to the life of Washington, a local civil rights activist.
