- Description:
- This photograph was published in the Birmingham News on September 9, 1957, with the following caption: "Negro group at hospital - Waiting outside the emergency room at University Hospital are the Rev. J. S. Phifer, Ruby Shuttlesworth, Nathaniel Lee, Patricia Ann Shuttlesworth and Walter Wilson. All were in the car with the Rev. F. L. Shuttlesworth when he was attacked at Phillips High School." (Though identified as Ruby Shuttlesworth, the young woman on the right appears to be someone else.)
