Justice Or Else: J. Cole Marches & Attendees Chant Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright”

    The Justice Or Else march is today (October 10) in Washington, D.C. The event marks the twentieth anniversary of the Million Man March, led by Minister Louis Farrakhan in 1995.

    According to various social media posts, J. Cole was in attendance. DJ Akademiks posted a picture of the North Carolina emcee in a Dreamville sweatshirt among the crowd.

    “J Cole really in the field,” he writes for the caption of a video of the rapper, who also visited the site of Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri after the teenager was shot and killed by a police officer.

    Howard University’s The Hilltop caught footage of marchers chanting Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright.” The song was also chanted in July when a crowd in Cleveland was pepper-sprayed while trying to prevent police from arresting a teenage boy. Ric Wilson, a Chicago rapper who was on the scene, called the song “the modern-day 2015 chant ‘We Shall Overcome.’

    1. #Blacklivesmatters if we have to put that way but to be less racist I would say #Allmatters so that we wouldn’t create much wars between whites and blacks… but to be truthful both sides are really tough. We need to be proud of ourselves and who we are… we don’t have to be low by standard because of the colour but being at good level.

      Everyday we need to love one another. Such stories can’t make us to hate one another don’t we? But the stories are to remind how strong and bearable we have been but that didn’t mean sign of weakness.

      Pity that such people can’t bear this pain but if they want to live longer have to learn about love for every race not matter who they are hated or not.
