A lot of energy is building as we approach Nov. 4. Next week, a march is planned in Atlanta Georgia to rally everyone to vote.

from PressRelease

Multi-Platinum Producer Kevin “Khao” Cates and Civil Rights Leader Dr. Charles Steele, Jr. will lead a march and rally Sunday, November 2nd in Atlanta, Ga. The march and rally is the culmination of the Million March 2 Vote Campaign, a non-partisan nationwide effort that calls on civic minded organizations to encourage their members and constituents to vote.

The campaign targets people that in the past may have never voted or been unaware of the steps to take to register to vote. The March will begin at 2:00pm and the Rally at 3:00pm. Participants will assemble at Morris Brown Herndon Stadium at 12:30pm and march down Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd to the Georgia State Capitol.

“It appears that the younger generations have lost sight of the struggles and obstacles that preceded them,” said Dr. Steele. “We want to rekindle that spirit in our youth and encourage everyone to use the right that so many have died for.”

“Our generation takes a lot for granted,” Khao said. “There is so much to learn from one another and it’s way overdue. There is lack of participation from us. I asked myself: who will be our leaders of tomorrow if we don’t make a stand and vote?”

I don’t know that I’ve heard any one make a point about the state of America better than Donna Brazille.

The point of this AJC article is well taken, but I want to know about more than just rich folks who are making adjustments because of the economy. At least the seller got some free pub.
