He participated in the Selma to Montgomery march and aided in efforts to register Black voters with the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. On January 3, 1966, Younge, Jr. was shot by a white gas station attendant in Tuskegee, AL, after attempting to use a "whites only" bathroom.

The recipient of this copy, Dr. Quentin Young, co-founded the Medical Committee for Human Rights and volunteered to aid in registering black voters during the Mississippi Freedom Summer in 1964. Young, a resident of Chicago, also served as a physician to Martin Luther King, Jr. during King's many stops in the city.
