Reclaim the Dream - August 28, 2010 March on DC
http://www.nationalactionnetwork.net/media-info/press-releases/376-reclaim-the-dream.html

PLEASE JOIN NATIONAL ACTION NETWORK

August 28, 2010 | 11:00 am | Dunbar High School | 1301 New Jersey Avenue Northwest | Washington, DC

47 years ago, the March on Washington took place where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his I Have a Dream speech at the March on Washington. 47 years later, Rev. Al Sharpton and the National Action Network invites you to reclaim the dream. We’ve made progress but our struggle still continues. Please join us and register for the historic Reclaim the Dream Rally and March on Saturday, August 28th in Washington DC at Dunbar High School at 11 am. National Action Network will mobilize progressive leaders, clergy, activists and "Dream Keepers" for a mass rally. There are conservative groups and tea party members that are holding rallies the same day at the Lincoln Memorial and we want to show the world that THE DREAM LIVES ON.


MARCH ROUTE
Line up at Dunbar High School, Begin march at North Street and New Jersey Ave, NW; Proceed West on North Street to South 6th Street; Walk from South 6th Street to Constitution Ave; Go West on Constitution Ave to 15th Street; Go South on 15th Street to Independence Ave; Walk West on independence Ave to 23rd Street and Ohio Drive (Intersection); Walk South on Ohio Drive Riverside; Enter West Potomac Park, Polo Field on to MLK Memorial Site

*****
I hope that this will be peaceful.

1. I'd almost consider going but somehow Beck/Faux News will lump our numbers into theirs
Because they think everyone who watches their show is pretty much clueless and stupid.

2. I think that the world will be able to tell
the different groups apart. They are only lying to themselves. The self-hatred for themselves and this country will be their downfall. They do not have the stamina to fight because their message is drowning in hate. Hating is easy except it eats at the soul until their is nothing left. The real warriors have been marching for a lot longer than these fools and have been in it for the long haul.

4. What I can't understand is what dream to they want to reclaim
what freedoms have they lost. What are the against except a black president and the Democrats. What do they propose to instigate if they do reclaim THEIR dream. This is a bunch of absolute s**t. And the people who show up are showing their ignorance, racism and hatred of America.

5. Their Dream
The supremacy of WASP over all others in the country, the way things were before Dr. King.

Their dream is ignorance, racism, and hatred!!!

That's what they want to bring back.

6. Why would Al Sharpton be opposed to a black president and the Democrats?
And why do you think he is ignorant, racist and hates America?
