Video And Pics After The Jump

 

Via MSNBC Written by Daniel Arkin and Becky Bratu 

 

Tens of thousands of people flooded the Lincoln Memorial and the National Mall on Saturday, the first stop in a week of events commemorating the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s watershed “I Have A Dream” address and the March on Washington.

 

12350345692?profile=original

 

Speakers rallied the massive crowd with prayers for peace and calls for justice that were at once testaments to King’s historical legacy and nods to contemporary issues, from hotly debated policing tactics to income inequality.

Participants in the March on Washington fill the space between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument on Aug. 28, 1963.

 

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, who took the stage overlooking the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool just before noon, paid tribute to the forerunners of the modern civil rights movement.

“Their march is now our march, and it must go on,” Holder said.

 

“But for them,” Holder added later, “I would not be Attorney General of the United States, and Barack Obama would not be President of the United States.”

 

He reiterated previous criticisms of the Supreme Court’s decision in June to strike down a key anti-discrimination provision of 1965’s landmark Voting Rights Act, which triggered a wave of “cumbersome” voting laws in several states.

 

“This morning, we affirm that struggle must and will go on until every eligible American has a chance to exercise his or her right to vote," said Holder, who sued Texas over a strict voter ID law on Thursday.

 

Newark mayor Cory Booker, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Md.) urged activists to advocate for equality and fairness, placing recent social debates in the context of King’s vision.

 

“Many of our people still inhabit islands of poverty, are incapable of finding good jobs, have no voice in our democracy, because they are told they have no valid ID,” Hoyer said.

 

Booker, 44, a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, called on young people to carry King's torch.

 

"Me and my generation cannot now afford to sit back consuming all of our blessings, getting dumb, fat and happy thinking we have achieved our freedoms," Booker said.

 

U.S. Rep John Lewis (D-Ga.), one of the pillars of King’s movement and the youngest speaker at the 1963 march, pressed the crowd to “fight the good fight” for freedom.

 

He energized spectators with a chant: “You’ve got to stand up, speak up, speak out, and get in the way! Make some noise!”

 

Saturday's march — co-organized by the Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network organization and King’s son, Martin Luther King III — is intended to protest “the continuing issues that have stood in the way” of fulfilling the goals of King’s iconic civil rights address, Sharpton said.

Rev. Al Sharpton

 

“To just celebrate Dr. King’s dream would give the false implication that we believe his dream has been fully achieved and we do not believe that,” Sharpton told The Associated Press. “We believe we've made a lot of progress toward his dream, but we do not believe we've arrived there yet.”

 

Rhonda Hearns, 50, a physician from Prince George's County, Md., who will attend the march, said matters such as voting rights, equal pay and discrimination show that there are many unresolved issues remaining. 

 

“I feel very honored to be able to attend this commemoration 50 years later, but it also stirs up a lot of emotion because we still have so far to go," Hearns said.

 

"It’s still very important for people to show up and march again,” she added. “Just a peaceful demonstration, like what Dr. Martin Luther King would have wanted."

 

Sharpton is the founder and head of the National Action Network and the host of a show on MSNBC.

 

ivil rights organizations, organized labor, the LGBT community and women's rights groups all are expected to be richly represented in the gathering.

 

Among the organizations participating in the march Saturday are: National Urban League, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, American Federation of Teachers, Human Rights Campaign, Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Black Justice Coalition, Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Service Employees International Union.

 

Sharpton told the AP that Saturday’s observances are aimed to highlight key civil rights issues dominating the national conversation, including New York’s controversial “stop-and-frisk” policing tactics, which critics have characterized as racial profiling, and Florida’s "Stand Your Ground" self-defense statute.

 

Those issues along with unemployment, health care and education are what will bring Yvette Young to the march. The 52-year-old Virginia resident and vice president at the Urban League of Hampton Roads hopes her daughter, 14, will have a better life than she did. 

 

"My life hasn't been so bad, but I grew up in the 60s," Young said, adding that she had to witness a lot of discrimination. "I hope for a much better road for her," she added.

 

The organization is convening the event along with a range of civic, labor and business sponsors, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).

 

Sharpton and King III will be joined Saturday by the parents of slain Florida teenager Trayvon Martin and relatives of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old boy who was abducted, beaten and shot in the head in 1955 in Mississippi after he was accused of flirting with a white woman, organizers said in a press release.

 

The so-called “Realize the Dream” march, which will cut a symbolic half-mile path from the Lincoln Memorial to the King Memorial, will also feature remarks from Attorney General Eric Holder, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Rep. Steny Hoyer, D-Md., according to the release.

 

The march and rally will be followed by the “Let Freedom Ring” commemoration and call to action on Wednesday — marking exactly 50 years since King drew more than 200,000 to the Lincoln Memorial and delivered his groundbreaking “I Have A Dream” speech.

 

King's address is widely credited with spurring the passage of the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act.

 

Young said the events of 1963 carried a deep meaning for her.

 

“I always wished that I could’ve been a part of it," she said. "Tomorrow gives me a chance to be a part of it. It’s 50 years later, but I’ll be there.”

 

Speakers at the Wednesday observance will include President Barack Obama and former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, according to the event’s website.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Congressman John Lewis returns to Washington and talks about not giving up for equality.

Charlamagne Tha God's visibility has gotten a big boost because of his new MTV2 show, Charlamagne and Friends. There are still some in the mainstream familiarizing themselves with the always opinionated Power 105.1 radio personality.

 

Buzzfeed sat down with CTG recently and got to know more about what makes him tick.

 

12350287096?profile=original

 

What's the first CD you bought?

Foxy Brown's Broken Silence. I bought it for a chick and it was definitely the first CD that I bought.

 

Who is your boy-crush?

Prince. I met him last year and it was crazy. he was walking down the hall at our radio station and he, like, floated towards us and he was levitating four or five inches off the ground. And he had this sparkle in his eye. Have you ever seen True Blood? You know how that glamour people? He glamoured everybody and I couldn't think of anything to say other than "I grew up a Jehovah's Witness, too." He said we had to talk about that, but then he just started floating away. I took a picture in my phone and you could see him levitating. But then 30 seconds later the picture just went black.

 

Pick one: Kittens or puppies?

Puppies. I remember one time I was young and high and a puppy licked my balls. I had on boxer briefs and he just started doing it ... so definitely puppies.

 

And finally: tell us a secret

I just told you a puppy licked my balls.

 

Head over to Buzzfeed to read the rest of the story.

Via New York Daily News

 

The adult film actress who caused a temporary shutdown of porn production after she tested positive for HIV had the results confirmed.

 

The 28-year-old porn star, who goes by the name Cameron Bay, tested positive for the virus this week after an earlier screening for sexually transmitted diseases came back inconclusive, the adult news site AVN Media Network reported.

 

The Free Speech Coalition, an industry trade group, said that additional testing confirmed the positive results.

 

“We are saddened to report that the tests involving performer Cameron Bay have been confirmed as positive for HIV,” the group said..

 

“As difficult as this news is for me today, I am hopeful that no other performers have been affected,” Bay said in a release.

“As difficult as this news is for me today, I am hopeful that no other performers have been affected,” Bay said in a release.


12350341471?profile=original


“I plan on doing everything possible to assist the medical professionals and my fellow performers. Following that, my long term plan is to take care of myself and my health.”

Mark Schechter, owner of Adult Talent Managers LA, which represents Bay, said the porn actress’s “courage should be lauded.”

 

“Cameron is obviously distraught over this conclusive information,” he said, adding that the actress has been cooperative with medical personnel.

 

“Cameron has been a model citizen acting responsibly at this most difficult time.”

 

The HIV scare prompted a moratorium on adult filmmaking after the Free Speech Coalition called for a halt to porn production.

 

The shutdown also sparked concern for Anthony Weiner’s sexting pal Sydney Leathers, who shot her first adult film with Xander Corvus, the last actor to work with Bay before she tested positive for HIV, Gawker reported.

 

12350341873?profile=original

 

Leathers, 23, told the website that she and Corvus, who played the sex-crazed politician in the newly released “Weiner and Me,” were tested before they filmed the Vivid Entertainment video and were deemed “healthy.”

 

Leathers also told the Daily News on Thursday that she’s confident she did not contract HIV and has tested negative for the virus three times.

 

“I do not have HIV and have not been exposed to HIV, regardless of the reports out there saying otherwise,” she told The News.

 

“I took all the necessary precautions ... and acted responsibly.”

Oklahoma City was not a good stop for the America's Most Wanted Tour featuring Lil Wayne, T.I. and 2 Chainz. After the show, Tity Boi, was arrested following a nine-hour standoff with police while on his tour bus. Now comes a report that a member of one of the three performers' entourages badly injured a girl.

 

According to TMZ, the girl was invited back to one of the tour buses along with another female friend by an unidentified male. Once on the bus, the male reached under the girl's shirt and grabbed her breast.

 

The young woman slapped his hand away. He then punched her in the face, sending her flying out of the bus door, onto the pavement.

 

A police report was filed. It stated that the male ran off, while the girl had to be taken to the hospital for surgery to repair two broken bones in her jaw, which will be wired shut for the next six weeks.

 

12350326869?profile=original

 

A rep for T.I. told TMZ that the incident didn't happen on his bus.

 

A police investigation is currently underway. No arrests have been made so far.

 

**UPDATE** August 30.
