Last week, I attended the Justice or Else Million Man March called by honorary Minister Louis Farrakhan.
To be an event with an estimate of 3 million people who showed up, there still were lots of disappointed black folk who didn’t have the chance to attend. As I spoke to some people through social media, I’ve heard many excuses for why they weren’t in attendance. Some saying because they had no transportation given such short notice or had to be at work. Others didn’t feel it necessary to come because they don’t believe in a current generation being in charge of black liberation. Lot’s of people simply didn’t want to hear what Minister Farrakhan had to say in conjunction to his past. But the majority relayed their absence was because they weren’t aware of the 20th Anniversary of the March being held this year.
If you weren’t aware of the Million Man March, who could truly blame you for not showing up for this special moment in history. Mainstream media failed to make you aware of such a historical event and still brushes it off with failure to broadcast the event’s successes and positivity.
Black media was sure to be in attendance. There’s plenty of good footage for you to get the gist of everything that happened on 10/10/15. Watch video brought to you by The Mindy Jo Show, below.
