(Source: FinalCall.com) When the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan issues a sacred clarion call for a national and international mobilization for justice, freedom and equality, millions of people across America and throughout the world responded with responsive enthusiasm and energy. Such was the case in response to the minister’s call for the Million Man March (MMM) in Washington, D.C. 20 years ago. I believe that history will be made once again this year on October 10 in Washington, D.C.
Minister Farrakhan boldly has issued a new call: Justice Or Else mobilization on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Million Man March on the National Mall. The Minister asserted, “On 10.10.15, let’s show the world our unity.†Our demand for justice will be a united demand. It will be an unequivocal demand for equal justice.
Without hesitation or fear, I made a decision to join Minister Farrakhan in 1995 to help him organize and mobilize the historic Million Man March as its national director. Being an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ, I knew then as I still know today that God continues to bless Minister Farrakhan uniquely with the vision and mission to redeem and empower Black Americans, Latino Americans, Native Americans and all others who struggle for a better quality of life in America and throughout the world.
