A point-driven march

The march on Washington DC (August 23, 1963, which the Nation of Islam and Malcolm X called, “the farce on Washington”) was the largest single protest demonstration in the history of the United States. More than 200,000 Americans (all races, colors and creeds) marched on Washington for civil rights; on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. The point was to show all of America how angry Nubians were and to let the world know that everyone (even some Canaanites) wanted desegregation. It was the greatest demonstration in support of racial equality the world has ever seen.

1964 AD to the spring of 1968 AD was a time of ghetto riots. Everyone wanted to live better. The main target was an attack on all businesses. This was the way to get the results that they wanted fast.
