Million Family March
Five years after the Million Man March, the Million Family March meets in Washington, DC today. It seems as though after the first rally, there was such a tremendous momentum within the black community. Those who attended came back home rejuvenated with a stronger sense of purpose and direction. Even those who did not attend were full of excitement and anticipation. Everyone was talking about it. Then, months later it seemed as though the whole agenda was abandoned.
I haven't heard as much about the Million Family March as I did the Million Man March leading up to the event. Most likely this was due to the fact that their was a lot of opposition from various people and organizations five years ago. The NAACP and the Urban League are supporting the rally this time. What does everyone think will happen this time around?
