    I cant call it on the night spots. Dunno if everything will b jumpin or if the ratios will just be ridiculously thrown off

    If you're a newby and want the traditional poppin spots:

    Park at 14th: Friday and Saturday night
    Ozio: Friday
    Rosebar: Friday
    If you're doing the march early and outta there early, the 'day' parties start at 4pm. Ozio best option, Rosebar 2nd

    Sunday day party: Barcode, Gryphon, and or Cities

    If u wanna post up and have a plethora of mixed crowd options hit 14th & U, cant go wrong.

    Ratchet: Layla lounge or Lux

    SMH it's gonna be a damn sausage fest this weekend. Clubs are going to be from minimum to none.

    Also I forgot the Taste of DC festival is this weekend.

    When the ? u EVER been to any of the clubs/bars listed and it been a sausage fest? FOH
    It's also Bowie State Homecoming

    ? will be out off the strength its possibly a million men in town

    It never has, but on a weekend like this... that sh-t is highly likely.

    And dude a Bowie State homecoming isn't shutting the DC down, Southern MD... yes.

    Where u think Bowie State ppl party at? DC ? lol
    What the ? is it to do in Southern Maryland? Hunt deer or get hung by the police out Charles County
    Its waaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy too many women in the DC area for it to EVER be a sausage fest on a weekend in the city

    4 million deep

    bruh why you keep saying 4 million people, they're not getting 4 ? million. Get Real with those fantasy expectations damn. This march hasn't had half the media exposure of the original march....i forgot about it lol....which is saying something in this era imho.

    there's gonna be like a couple hundred thousand ppl at this thing......at the most.....sorta like every other march they have in D.C every other week. That's how it was when I went to the Million Family March. Getting people out on the Mall ain't hard. So i don't wanna hear ya'll ? gassing this ? up as "10 MILLION PEOPLE SHOWED UP!!!!!!!!" just to justify ya'll vacation expenses. Everybody that spend money to travel to a D.C march always try to tell me its gonna spark a REVOLUTION. ? , stop bullshitting me.

    when does it start ? i hear its from 10-3
    I'll go to the next one when I'm old as hell.

    Not going just because I used my vacation week for another.

    Farahkhan is 82......................................... the next one huh?

    yeah too bad he just as paranoid about viable successors as Elijah was......

    I feel like I'm borderline done with Farrakhan. Associating with Scientology devils is damn near unforgivable and I will ? laugh if any of ya'll get handed a Dianetics pamphlet this weekend. Black Unity is needed and those old classic speech moments on Big Daddy Kane records were great but I don't put much stock in Farrakhan's empty rallying cries and vague threats anymore. Justice or Else? Or else what? The days where Malcolm X had them all outside the police station ain't happening no more, clearly. The FOI never been big on guns, right? I see no widespread attempt to arm black people and organize them for self-defense either. Man whatever.

    imho Farrakhan is in this for himself, ultimately. I don't doubt his love for Black People....but he probably believes that whatever's best for him is best for black people.

    I'll keep buying my Bean Pies if it makes ya'll feel any better tho.

    Sounds like a fox news report

    bruh I still remember when Fox News claimed 2 million people showed up to some Tea Party march in D.C

    they were reposting old photos of religious gatherings in D.C saying that was their crowd lmao smh

    cacs swore that march would start a "revolution" too lol

    Like my bad for sounding so ? -damned pessimistic and throwing shade on ppl weekend plans but c'mon. Look at this thread. All the discussion is about what ? bars and nightclubs ? going to afterwards..........c'mon son. When I thought about attending NetRoots Nation, it wasn't just for parties with other activists, they have workshops and roundtables and panels......classes that teach you how to organize, how to forge alliances, how to fundraise, how to handle tear gas, how to protect your rights vis-a-vie police etc......real knowledge ? . I see the Justice or Else website got links to "Local Organizing Committees"..........but most of those are just e-mails and phone numbers and the few ones with actual websites seem to be just organizing buses to D.C.

    I've heard the concept discussed before. Hard to argue with the notion that folks who pay taxes deserve to be represented in Congress.
