10/10/15-20 Year Anniversary of The Million Man March: You Going?

[Lurkristocrat]

Props to yall brothers thats going. Folks can talk online all day but actually getting out there and linking up with others for inspiration and hopefully positive change is a great thing that trumps all else. If I lived close to that area I would definitely be there

Going to this march won't do anything. People don't want to hear that, but it's the truth. All these people together....and no investment building. A complete waste of time, and fuck all the fake coon "Black leaders' who will use this for their ID brand.

"it wont do anything". what is it SUPPOSED to do outside of show the world that a MILLION black people can come together for a good cause?

your line of thought is so nihilistic but you got it.

What's the good cause? We don't need to come to together for a "good cause." We need a plan of action to improve our situation.

clearly, there is NO reason for me to have dialogue with you about this. i'm not in the business of convincing people or changing minds.

Say bruh, dont u plan on fighting some ic nigga at the march tho?

nah. that would be silly as fuck.

imma tell him about himself tho and how corny he fucking is.

what would be silly as fuck is If u think some nigga u never met before bout to let u get in his face, Yappin he aint shit without a fight poppin after lol. But shit, I dont know the nigga either so he might just accept it and walk away.

if homie wants that type of problem, so be it.

i give no fucks.

No doubt

[NeighborhoodNomad.]

Anybody down to carpool?

If I had the paper I would be there.

For those who go, can y'all please make a few videos and post them up in here, they might be streaming it already, but just in case...

 

[1CK1S]

SMH, I might end up going cause I accidentally asked to be a volunteer.

 

[T. Sanford]

I WANTED TO GO BUT I WASNT ABOUT TO GO SOLO...

Tf you waiting on someone else for? Ol hold my hand ass nigga

 

[tompetrez3]

Yes im still going. If you guys have the means and access i advise you go. So much shit done happened to me in last month. My job tripping about my days off. Ceiling fell in from an AC pan leak and insurance didnt cover it had to go into emergency fund to pay it. Car battery died. Brakes put on yesterday. Kids school fees. ATM machine failed to dispense $200 and it takes 90 days to review case for possible refund. Texas August electricity bill higher than truck payment and still gotta save for holidays. I got legit grown man reasons why I shouldnt go to the march but to you BLACK MEN. not coons, whiteboys, halfbreeds or women. BLACK MEN its time to stand up. Only way im not im DC saturday morning is if im dead and cremated. Its that fucking serious

If you dont want to partcipate for your own personal reasons, cool, but some of you men have young children, some of you men are married, some of you men got dead homies and niggas behind the wall, some of you men got sick relatives. If you not going go for yourself at least go in spirit of someone who really cant go. Cause if you an able bodied black man that can get in and out of bed, feed yourself and communicate properly your black ass need to be in DC on saturday. Trust me. The world will be shocked saturday morning. Your woman, your children, and your parents will give you a side eye of dishonor and cowardice for not being out there with us.

Fuck the skeptics and naysayers. History will be made. Maximus Rex sound just like Alex Jones with all them scary ass strawman points about farrakhan and not going. Oh yeah infowars is the place where you niggas get all your GNS know it all material from. While we in DC on the front lines, making history 4 million deep, black as fuck, loud as fuck, standing the fuck up united and ready for WHATEVER like the world has never seen these marshmellow spined, jelly kneed, ensure bladder ass niggas gonna be on here SITTING DOWN saying the SAME SHIT OVER AND OVER like how they say marches and protests are. go fucking figure.

Oh word? Was debating whether to come up friday night or saturday afternoon. Not sure of event plans

 

[ghostdog56]

[Lurkristocrat]

So who gon be out there and what night spots should be poppin?

 

[yellowtapesport]

So who gon be out there and what night spots should be poppin?

Came here to ask this. I ain't heard shit bout no MMM after parties lol but I'm sure it's something going on somewhere esp after that washed out homecoming weekend

 

[Catalyst2012]

Im debating on whether or not to go. I never paid it much attention until now. But, I'll admit seeing some of these post made me feel like I "MUST" be there.

 

[Plutarch]

I kind of want to go. I have the utmost respect for the minister and the cause. But I'm busy, and I don't like huge crowds, anyway. More power to those who go though.

 

[S2J]

I cant call it on the night spots. Dunno if everything will b jumpin or if the ratios will just be ridiculously thrown off

If you're a newby and want the traditional poppin spots:

Park at 14th: Friday and Saturday night

Ozio: Friday

Rosebar: Friday

If you're doing the march early and outta there early, the 'day' parties start at 4pm. Ozio best option, Rosebar 2nd

Sunday day party: Barcode, Gryphon, and or Cities

If u wanna post up and have a plethora of mixed crowd options hit 14th & U, cant go wrong.

Ratchet: Layla lounge or Lux

 

[MrMinimalist]

I'll go to the next one when I'm old as hell.

Not going just because I used my vacation week for another.

 

[D0wn]

when does it start ? i hear its from 10-3

I'll go to the next one when I'm old as hell.

Not going just because I used my vacation week for another.

Farahkhan is 82......................................... the next one huh?

 

[Swiffness!]

4 million deep

bruh why you keep saying 4 million people, they're not getting 4 fuckin million. Get Real with those fantasy expectations damn. This march hasn't had half the media exposure of the original march....i forgot about it lol....which is saying something in this era imho.

there's gonna be like a couple hundred thousand ppl at this thing......at the most.....sorta like every other march they have in D.C every other week. That's how it was when I went to the Million Family March. Getting people out on the Mall ain't hard. So i don't wanna hear ya'll niggas gassing this shit up as "10 MILLION PEOPLE SHOWED UP!!!!!!!!" just to justify ya'll vacation expenses. Everybody that spend money to travel to a D.C march always try to tell me its gonna spark a REVOLUTION. Bullshit, stop bullshitting me.

Farahkhan is 82......................................... the next one huh?

yeah too bad he just as paranoid about viable successors as Elijah was......

I feel like I'm borderline done with Farrakhan. Associating with Scientology devils is damn near unforgivable and I will fucking laugh if any of ya'll get handed a Dianetics pamphlet this weekend. Black Unity is needed and those old classic speech moments on Big Daddy Kane records were great but I don't put much stock in Farrakhan's empty rallying cries and vague threats anymore. Justice or Else? Or else what? The days where Malcolm X had them all outside the police station ain't happening no more, clearly. The FOI never been big on guns, right? I see no widespread attempt to arm black people and organize them for self-defense either. Man whatever.

imho Farrakhan is in this for himself, ultimately. I don't doubt his love for Black People....but he probably believes that whatever's best for him is best for black people.

I'll keep buying my Bean Pies if it makes ya'll feel any better tho.
