A2 Y THE NEW YORK TIMES, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2020

October 17, 1995.Black men from across the nation gathered at the National Mall in

Washington to “vow stronger leadership in protecting their communities from violence

and social despair,” The Times reported. “There’s a new Black man in America today,”

said Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam and organizer of the “Million Man

March,” which drew an estimated 400,000 to the Mall. The event included speeches by

many prominent Black figures, including the poet Maya Angelou and the Rev. Jesse

Jackson. The crowd easily exceeded the attendance (estimated at 250,000) of the 1963

civil rights march led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
