| Description |
An advertising flier promoting a concert by the Washington, D.C. punk band, Fugazi. The concert -- titled "Martin Luther King, Jr. Concert For Justice" -- occurred on August 7, 1993 at the Sylvan Theater in Washington, D.C., adjacent to the Washington Monument. Other bands on the bill were Pleasure (a go-go band from Washington, D.C.) and Izalco (a band that played Salvadoran folk music). The concert, which drew thousands of people, was described as a "rally to recall and reignite Dr. King's radical message amidst our present crisis of violence, greed and inequality" and was arranged and promoted by Positive Force DC, an activist group rooted in Washington, D.C.'s punk community.
