1) How do you feel about the last million youth march?

I'm not scared of the Million Man March or the Million Youth March I'm proud that we are marching. I'm proud to be a member of the Black race. I'm sorry that they like to fight, but I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ in my heart. I believe we're going to march in September and there ain't gonna be no fighting. That's in my faith, I'm standing on the word.

 

2) What do you think will come from this march?

I think it's going to make us stronger as long as we can control our tempers, those of us, you know who I'm talking about. Control our tempers and just stop looking at the color and start looking at the youth that need the help. Let's stick together now and don't give up always keep GOD first though. Remember that. I ain't trying to preach.

1) How do you feel about the last million youth march?

It was decent.

 

2) What do you think will come from this march?

I don't know, it all depends on what the youth's agenda is. What is their agenda? You are a youth, what's your agenda? Are you going to participate?

 

3) How do you think the city is taking the march?

I don't know, I think their going to take the same type of stand they took the last time.

 

4) How do you think the general public and youth are understanding the march?

Hopefully they won't have that [riots] this time. Hopefully it'll be a little bit more structured and maybe their agenda will be a lot more clearer. If the youth are saying what they want and it seems to be feasible then it should be productive. But if what they want seems to be radical and against the grain then their going to get nothing out of it.

It was good, positive I guess.

I don't really know much about that match, so I can't really say much about it.

 

3) How do you think the city is taking the march?

I guess it'll be safe, a lot of security. Just to make sure things don't get out of control.

Not really, I'll be out of town.

1) How do you feel about the last million youth march?

Well, I can only speack on what I saw on televison and a lot of the trouble was not caused by the participants. Some of it was caused by the police. I hope if they have this march that it will be a success, and that there will be no interference. I want to make sure that you conduct yourselves in this march, for what you're out here for; to bring peace, harmony and unity in the community for everybody. Not just the blacks, among each and every one of us, no matter what our race creed or color is . I hope that the march is a success.

 

3) How do you think the city is taking the march?

Not very well, there is controversy on both sides.

 

4) How do you think the general public and youth are understanding the march?

I hope and pray that they take care of this

 

5) Will you attend the march? Why or why not?

No I won't, but I will be watching.
