suffer from poor leadership
today; we suffer from no
leadership.”
After the rally was concluded,
the massive sea of humanity
flowed away from the Capitol -
to the downtown area, to tourist
attractions, to buses awaiting to
take the demonstrators home, to
the Washington Monument. At
the monument - dubbed by many
demonstrators as “the govern
ment’s big phallic symbol’’
about 20,000 young people made
camp to listen to a “pop” festival,
featuring Richie Haven, Country
Joe and the Fish, John Hartford,
Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul, and-
Mary, and Phil Ochs.
Perhaps, Kent Walton, a Senior
preparing to graduate from West
Georgia and go to jail for
returning his draft card, sum
med up the feelings of many
when he said: “The entire ex
perience of sharing in the march
and the related activities was
beautiful. It was really fantastic
to see 500,000 people, all
demonstrating non-violently for
peace and brotherhood. It was a
beautiful experience to be a part
of the communal sharing of food,
drink, andthoughts and I just
hope it will open the eyes of a few
more people.”
