The Million Man March was an African American march of protest and unity on Washington, DC in 1995. The actual number of participants was disputed, but almost certainly less than a million. Many blacks and liberal whites were critical or ambivalent about the march due to some of the more controversial figures associated with it (such as Nation of Islam founder Louis Farrakhan) and many considered the male-only event sexist.
