Biography
Stephen G. Cary was a Quaker who advocated for the poor gathered in Resurrection City during the Poor People’s March on Washington. Gordon M. Browne Jr.’s review of Daisy Newman’s A Procession of Friends explicitly reports that Cary went to jail for fourteen days for demonstrating alongside the poor. The article does not print an exact arrest or discharge day, formal statutory charge, sentencing court or named jail. Actual jailing is established. The reported fourteen-day term is retained without assuming an independently measured completed duration.
