With other Grinnell College students, John F. Phillips '67 participated in and photographed civil rights marches in Selma, Montgomery, New Haven, Washington, DC, and Toronto. His photographs reveal this remarkable era in history with dignity and, often, tenderness. All works are a recent gift to the Grinnell College Art Collection.
