On December 10, 1950, Dr. Ralph Bunche became the first African-American presented with the Nobel Peace Prize.  He was awarded for his efforts in negotiating peace between Israel and nearby Arab countries.  He also participated in the development and management of the United Nations.  And, in 1963, he attended MLK's March on Washington for Freedom and Jobs and was given the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President John F. Kennedy.
