    Growing up September always meant a new Miss America would be crowned. This is a fascinating original 1968 Feminists Flier Protesting Miss America Pageant Atlantic City with the bold and provocative header "Slavery Exists". Washington Women's Liberation flier describing how Miss America is a slave to various cultural norms and inviting people to boycott the Miss America pageant. Made for and leading up to the famous protest in Atlantic City in 1968. This protest was organized by "New York Radical Women", a group active in the civil rights, anti-war, and New Left movements of the 60s. Photo of the group is from the internet, not something I posses... yet. Size is 8 1/2" x 11".
