Flier highlights poor conditions in the schools and calls for a one day school boycott.

The New York City school boycott, also referred to as Freedom Day, was a large-scale boycott and protest against segregation in the New York City public school system which took place on February 3, 1964. Students and teachers walked out to highlight the deplorable conditions at public schools in the city, and demonstrators held rallies demanding school integration.[1] It has been described as the largest civil rights protest of the 1960s, involving nearly half a million participants.[2]
