- Description
- A color photograph of six Chicago Police Department officers and one African American plain clothes officer walking among civilians. Wearing black pants, blue uniform shirts, and blue helmets, they walk in a rough line next to several young white men. The foremost policemen are smiling and looking in various directions; some distance apart in the background is an African American policeman. The plain clothes officer wears glasses, a navy blue tee shirt and dark pants. He has a red patch tied around his left arm and gazes directly at the viewer. The young white men wear light colored t-shirts and dark pants. They are looking in multiple directions; the foremost figure has a cigarette between the fingers of his right hand and his gazing towards the viewer, grinning.
