The new generation shouldn't need a road trip to Jena to be mobilized. Mobilization is a process and adults in the communities need to lead by example. The March in Washington didn't begin or end anything and neither did the MMM. The "add water and stir" approach to social action is annoying. That's how you get 2 of the Jena 6 to show up on the BET red carpet throwing up "Jena 6" handsigns like they did something. And looking like they think they're rockstars.
