Rev. Al Sharpton: Civil Service

American religious leader and civil rights activist Rev. Al Sharpton, Tawana Brawley and attorney C. Vernon Mason hold hands outside the State Supreme Court, New York, July 20, 1990. The trio, at the court to attend the so-called Central Park Jogger trial, had been involved in another high-profile rape case when, in the late 1980s, Brawley accused six men of kidnapping and rape.
