#NAACPYC marches into Washington, DC for America’s Journey for Justice

Students from across the country joined in America's Journey for Justice. From Detroit to Los Angeles, the youth and college division was represented on the ground from Selma, AL to Washington, DC. Take a look at these snapshots from the culminating event in Washington, DC this week.

There were many highlights during the journey. Our Providence, RI Youth Council traveled with us through Virginia into Washington for the march to the Lincoln Memorial and rally on Capitol Hill.
