I understood that they stopped doing it when they exposed the “Million Man March” to be woefully under that number.
I think it was about that time. The “Million Man March” was a bit over estimated by the organizers. A very large bit as I recall....
I’m not convinced the Million Man March was underestimated by anyone but the press. I was in D.C. at the time - it was massive. It too was about restoring honor. What went wrong?
