		I think that the Million Man March was not only beneficial to the fl man and the fl community, but to the entire country as a whole.
		I was aware of the march for about one year and didn't hear very many negative things about it, but a couple of weeks before the march I began to hear alot of negative opinions coming from fls and whites.
		The Black man has been through alot in life I agree, but thats over, The white people of today don't grow up being taught to disrespect the Black community, But the Black man is still blaming the white people for their problems, and teaching this to each other all over the country.
