Our Founder Robert Raben shares the incredible origin story of March On! From its inception, March On has been a platform for justice, using the power of collective action to continue the fight for equality in the modern era. In the ‘Historical Drama with The Boston Sisters’ podcast, Robert delves deep into the motivations, challenges, and successes that led to the creation of this vital movement, and how it continues to inspire change today. Robert discusses elevating untold stories, reclaiming hidden history, and the life of Bayard Rustin.

March On uses the power of the arts—film, performance, and visual arts—to find, encourage, and bring to life the stories of both icons and foot soldiers from the Civil Rights Movement. As a year-round arts platform, we are dedicated to fostering a deeper appreciation of these pivotal stories. Join us in this movement and sign up for updates for the 2025 March On Festival on our website! marchonfest.org #MarchOnFest #CivilRights #Storytelling #StoriesThatMove
Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is set to fulfill another one of her life’s goals. The first Black woman to sit on the Supreme Court is set to appear in a Broadway show when she takes the stage in a one-night performance in “& Juliet.” In her memoir “Lovely One,” which the show cited in its announcement, the justice shared that, in her application essay to Harvard University, where she earned her undergraduate and law degrees, she wrote that it was her fantasy to be “the first Black, female Supreme Court justice to appear on a Broadway stage.” “Let’s make that teenage dream come true, Justice Jackson,” the show said in the post. We were honored with Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s presence during the 2024 March On Festival. We are incredibly proud to see her continue to achieve her dreams and reach new milestones along the way. ✨ Video Source 📺: @andjulietbway Article Source 📃: CNN #KetanjiBrownJackson #Broadway #Creative #StoriesThatMove
