        After Daughters of the American Revolution had prevented her singing to an integrated audience at Constitution Hall.

        Yes, then Mrs. Roosevelt resigned from the DAR and the concert was set for the Lincoln Memorial.

        Mrs Roosevelt was frustrated by her husband's lack of progress on civil rights due to his need to conciliate Southern Democrats.

        Remember my mother telling about Marian Anderson and DAR. She was a liberal Dem from forever. Lucky to have her teaching this and so much.

        My parent were so proud to see Marion Anderson on tv sing at the Lincoln Memorial...although she wasn't allowed to sing in the White House.

        We shouldn't forget that she sang at Lincoln Memorial because the DAR wouldn't let her sing at their building.

        Marion Anderson banned by Daughters of the Revolution from their hall so she sang under the protection of the Great Emancipator
