The Marching Toward Justice Exhibit was created by the Keith Collection at Wayne State University to inform the public about the importance of the 14th Amendment and our ongoing quest to realize the high ideals of the United States Declaration of Independence. Image 1. This exhibit illustrates our country's past promotion of justice and equality while condoning enslavement and oppression. That African Americans were long denied due process and equal protection under the law remains a historical dichotomy in a country of democratic ideals.
