Under Connor's orders police and firemen attack the demonstrators, until even Kennedy speaks out. On May 5, despite Connor's angry orders, police and firemen let the marchers pass, and soon an integration plan is agreed to. King and others agree to Randolph's plan for a march on Washington, and carry on even though the Kennedy brothers and Lyndon Johnson insist it will hurt pending civil rights legislation. President Kennedy warns King that the FBI has compromising audiotapes of King, and demands that several SCLC staffers (suspected of Communist ties) be fired.
