Lyon described Capehart's earlier piece as"outrageous," saying that the image in question was part of a larger set and undeniably depicted Sanders, not fellow student activist Bruce Rappaport:
I took the photograph of Bernie Sanders speaking to his fellow CORE members at that sit-in. Bob McNamara, a close friend and CORE activist, is in the very corner next to me in the picture.

These newly discovered pictures, including close up photographs of the student activists show us exactly what Bernie was and what he remains.
