Fair use rationale[edit]

1. Purpose and character of the use: Educational use: illustrates a historic figure, Carl Stokes, the first African American mayor of a major city.
2. Nature of the copyrighted work: historic color photograph from 1968. Photo has been published previously on the WWW.
3. Amount used: The image has been cropped slightly. It is of mediocre quality, sufficient for web publication, but unfit for serious print publications.
4. Effect of the use on the potential market or value of the image: Probably none. The CMP doesn't sell the image (and has given permission anyway).
