Fathers Protest - 1972


PHOTO CAPTION: FATHERS PROTEST – Divorced fathers picket county court house, seeking changes in child custody procedures. Calling the action a “Father-less Day” demonstration, members of Fathers United for Equal Rights protested what they termed the “legal kidnapping of our children” by the mothers. Men said they hope to encourage judges to award joint custody of children in a divorce.
