It's what happens afterwards, you see, that's important and certainly we have built local organizing committees all around the country. We had to build 315 at a minimum in order to bring that many people to Washington. We built personal and organizational respect and cooperation for each other. As you know black adoptions went up as a result of that, membership in all community organizations from religion to social service to political active. I think that's a good record.
People begin to talk about the independent politic.
Number one, the challenge to create an independent politic beyond democratic and republican but to have a politics of possibility, a politics focused on common human good. Second, economic development, investment. Next, the struggle to have fair representation in the media, to stop letting the established order reduce us to mammies, minstrels and mascots, you see, and to actually insist on a different way of projecting ourselves. We've been struggling with that. Anther thing is to support public education and independent education and to insist on quality buildings, quality instructional material, faculty development.
