I'm not sure if you were responding to me (the second comment) or the first commenter.
I was referring to the march itself, yes. I enjoyed the first part, the stationary part at 6th & Market. I thought the speakers had some great things to say, things that I personally found inspiring.
What aggravated me the most about the entire thing was not the event itself, but the total lack of major media coverage in Philly. I can't say I'm surprised at all, but isn't the point of a demonstration to get the public and the state's attention? It's not necessarily the participants' fault - it's obvious that the police and media are responsible for the blackout. I don't have any suggestions. I'm just complaining without any answers, that's right. All I'm saying is that something needs to change - this did nothing but satisfy those people already involved in the Free Mumia movement.
I never said I was doing anything that was more effective than this demonstration. Which is why I'm not sure if you were directing your comment towards me or not.
I'm not sure if you were
