The MOWM was the model for the 1963 March on Washington, where Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his famous âI Have a Dream Speech,â and the militant Black-only politics of the MOWM foreshadowed the Black Power movement of the late 1960s.
Initially, the March on Washington was supported by leaders of the âBig Sixâ civil rights organizations: James Farmer, Congress of Racial Equality (CORE); Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., .Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC); John Lewis, Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC); A. Philip Randolph, Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters; Roy Wilkins, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP); and Whitney Young, National Urban League.
