His father, James Farmer Sr., was a Methodist minster and one of the first African American men in the state to earn a PhD. The family moved to Mississippi and back to Texas during Farmer's childhood as his father took teaching positions at various colleges. Farmer was accepted at the age of 14 to Wiley College in Marshall, TX. In 1938, he graduated and moved on to Howard University in Washington, DC, where he studied religion. His master's thesis examined the interrelatedness of economics, religion, and race. During his time at Howard, Farmer began to work with the Fellowship of Reconciliation, a pacifist Quaker organization. In 1942, Farmer cofounded the Committee of Racial Equality (CORE), an interracial civil rights organization dedicated to the idea that racial equality is necessary for a just society. Throughout the 1940s and 50s, Farmer was a prominent civil rights leader, fighting to end segregation. In early 1961, he became the National Director of CORE, now the Congress of Racial Equality. He led the first group of Freedom Riders, an interracial group of activists who rode buses in southern states to desegregate them. Farmer and his fellow activists were repeatedly threatened and attacked, as they worked to confront the racial segregation across the south. Farmer was one of the organizers of the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom but could not attend the March because he had been arrested in Louisiana while protesting segregation. His speech was read by a fellow CORE member, Floyd McKissick, who would take over as director of the organization when Farmer resigned in 1966. Farmer's resignation was prompted by increasing conflict over whether civil rights activists should take more confrontational action in their protests. He spent the 1970s working with the Council on Minority Planning and Strategy and organizations which promoted integrated housing. In 1984, Farmer accepted a position as a professor at the College of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, VA, where he taught until 1998, a year before his death. He published an autobiography, "Lay Bare the Heart," in 1986. In 1998, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his work for racial equality.

A group of Washington citizens came together to form the Washington National Monument Society with the intention of finally moving forward with a monument. The original Board of Managers were Daniel Brent, James Kearney, Joseph Gales, Joseph Gales Jr., William W. Seaton, George Watterston, John McClelland, Pishey Thompson, Thomas Carberry, and Peter Force. They solicited donations from the public and had raised $28,000 by 1836. From 1836 until the mid 1840s the Society held a design competition where American artists and architects could submit their ideas for the monument. They settled on a design by Robert Mills. In 1854, Congress transferred the land on the Mall to the Society so it could being construction, and the cornerstone was laid in July of that year. By 1854, however, the Society had run out of money. Attempts to raise funds from public donations or a Congressional appropriation met with little success. As the national centennial approached, pressure increased to complete the monument. Finally, in 1876, Congress passed a joint resolution taking charge of the completion of the monument. The Society ceded back the land on the Mall and acted as advisors to the Joint Committee in charge of completing construction. They helped review a number of proposed completion designs but ultimately decided on the obelisk we have today. The capstone of the monument was set in December 1884.

Later that same year, he and his family emigrated to America and settled in New York City. Saint-Gaudens left public school at age 13 to learn the trade of cutting cameos. Cameos are small relief-carved objects which were a popular form of jewelry in the 1800s. From age 13 to 19, Saint-Gaudens worked for cameo-cutters while taking art classes in the evening at the Cooper Institute in New York. He left the United States for Paris in 1867 to visit the International Exposition and to attend the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, a well-known and influential art school, where he was accepted as a student of sculptor Francois Jouffroy. When the Franco-Prussian War began in 1870, Saint-Gaudens moved to Rome, where he created and sold copies of classical sculptures to tourists. He received his first original sculpture commission in 1874 for a statue at the Masonic Lodge in New York City. In Rome, he met and fell in love with Augusta Fisher Homer. Saint-Gaudens returned to New York in 1875 in search of long-term work. He won the commission to design and build a monument to US Navy Admiral David Farragut. Shortly after signing the contract, Saint-Gaudens and Homer married and immediately returned to Europe. They lived abroad during the five years he spent building the Farragut monument. By 1881, the Farragut monument was installed and Saint Gaudens and his wife returned to live in New York. His piece was well received and led to many more commissions, including The Standing Lincoln in Lincoln Park in Chicago and the Shaw Memorial on the Boston Common. He also created a statue of Diana which stood on top of Madison Square Garden for decades, and is now on display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. He received a diagnosis of terminal cancer in 1900, and he continued to work until his death seven years later. It was during these last years of his life when he joined the Senate Park Commission to share his expertise that shaped the <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/350">plans for a new design</a> of the National Mall.

His parents had moved to the city the year before from Mississippi, fleeing threats of racial violence against his father, a minister. Wilkins's mother died when he was young, and he and his younger sister went to live with their aunt and uncle in St. Paul, Minnesota. He graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1923 with a bachelors degree in sociology. In 1922, Wilkins had become the editor of a local black newspaper. After graduating, Wilkins moved to the Kansas City area to work as the editor of the Call, a weekly paper that served the African American communities of Kansas City, Missouri, and Kansas City, Kansas. In 1931, Wilkins became the assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, serving with Executive Secretary, Walter White. It was this position which led to his participation in the planning of the 1941 <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/329">march</a> on Washington organized by <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/97">A.

Roosevelt issued an <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/328">executive order</a> banning discrimination in the national defense industry. When Walter White died in 1955, Wilkins was unanimously named Executive Secretary of the NAACP by the Board of Directors. The landmark Supreme Court decision banning school segregation, Brown v. Board of Education, was issued the year before, and during his tenure as Executive Secretary, Wilkins had to grapple with the competing strategies of the growing number of civil rights organizations. In 1963, Wilkins was one of the leaders of the <a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/190">March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom</a>. At the event, his speech addressed the continuing existence of segregation in schools and called on Congress to take decisive action.

In 1809, they played for James Madison's Inaugural Ball, and continued to play for social events at the White House for the Madison administration and beyond. They have played for Presidential weddings and funerals. In 1943, they played a special wartime concert for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, undeterred by a steady rain. In 1883, the Marine Band played in front of the Smithsonian Castle for the dedication of the statue of Joseph Henry. Their Director, John Philip Sousa, composed a special march for the occasion.

By the time he was 20 years old, he had already published compositions, including his first march. Sousa left the band in 1874 to work as an independent musician. He worked as a violinist, composer, and conductor, often working on theatrical productions. In 1880, the Marine Corps invited him to become the Director of the United States Marine Band. Under his leadership, the quality of musicians improved and the style of music the band played changed. Sousa introduced popular tunes in addition to his own compositions. The band become extremely popular in its hometown, Washington, DC. When the statue of Joseph Henry, which is located in front of the Smithsonian Institution Building, was dedicated in 1883, the band played "The Transit of Venus March," composed for the occasion by Sousa. The Washington Post commissioned a march of its own in 1889. Sousa resigned as Director in 1892 to form his own concert band.
