Two marches came to Washington October 16. The event on the podium-speeches by the Million Man March's organizers and would-be leaders-naturally caught the media's attention. But the day's long-term significance should more properly be sought in the other march, below the stage, where a mass came together and recognized itself. Most of the people were there not to embrace Louis Farrakhan or any other leader but to affirm that they were not what they say. But the march itself was not an unequivocal victory for patriarchy or separatist nationalism.
