Page PDF saved through a browser by T1 on 2026-11-04 (the site refuses scripts; its browser check was not bypassed). The caption was read by eye on the page image. The caption’s own dashes are the paper’s; the essay quotes only the sentence after the headline, which has none. The caption gives initials, not a first name. The same page reports the All-Citizens Registration Committee, chaired by Dr. C. A. Bacote, aiming at “the registration of 20,000 more Negro voters in Fulton County” (not quoted in the essay). The photograph’s rights are not established; quote the caption text only and never reproduce the photo. Found by T1 (GA-ADW, Apollo’s word).
