Impact of demonstration ·
Agreement to enforce existing antidiscrimination laws; drew public attention to construction discrimination; served as model for future protests by ministers
Some activists wanted more -- new laws or commitment to specific number of jobs for African Americans. But seems author's assessment is that demonstration was successful.
