Thoughts on record marches

After I came down from the high I had seeing so many organized and hearing that we had over a million people protesting around the country, I was reflecting on how few white people were present at the demonstration I attended. These are the largest demonstrations in history. While white liberals do not have to be at the forefront of every protest, it is disturbing that so many did not attend nor know what was happening. A friend of mine pointed out that the publicity was poor yet millions of Latinos showed up. Not a good excuse. Even more disturbing was many of white people who came across the rallies stood on the outskirts never being a part of the crowd. At the college, the final rallying point, curious white students would keep a safe 20 ft distance.
