Nearly 30 ,000 people
gathered at Freedom Plaza in
the march led by the Rev. Al
Sharpton of NAN, chanting
oNo justice, no peace. What
_ do we want? Justice. When
do we want it? Now! ? Civil
rights hymns rang out as
thousands of men, women,
children and elderly made the
trek around the U.S, "
Department of Justice. "
oWe're going to keep
applying the pressure, ? the
Rev. DeVes Toon, national
field director for NAN, told
BlackAmericaWeb.com.
oWe are in the process of
developing the manifesto, and
we will request a meeting and
present it to the new U.S.
attorney general, ? Toon said.
He estimates that 25,000 to
35,000 were present for the
march organized by Sharpton,
because of what he calls the
neglect of the federal
government to protect black
people from hate crimes,
Among those in the crowd
was Marcus Jones, whose son
Mychal Bell, is one of the
Jena Six. Those young men in
rural Louisiana faced felony

thousands of African Americans who lifted themselves out of
Kee poverty to a comfortable middle class existence " an existence
that she, throughout her childhood, had seen on a black and white television set that only
occasionally spotlighted people with her skin color. But it was enough to ignite her hope, to
fuel her inherent drive, and to give reason for a third glance at the road Arrington traveled,
Granelle Ts Li I ousine ye ice
oT was born in Greene County, North Carolina, the fourth of seven children. mother died
when I was seven years old -that day I remember clearly. Until his death, my father never
publicly acknowledged me as his daughter, though I met him once. I was adopted by my
grandparents, Tom and Eva Brown-Arrington, when I was in the fourth or fifth grade "
maybe younger. Though the date didn Tt matter as long as I could remain with them " not _
shuffled off to a foster home as was strongly urged by a social worker. My grandparents were
so giving, so loving, so very committed to me. I never experienced the emotional void of not
having biological parents until after they were gone. My grandfather died in-1966. My
grandmother died in 1968. That Ts when I realized how big this world was. I was fifteen years
old and didn Tt have a clue how I was going to survive. All I had to draw from was the well of
steel determination instilled in me by my grandmother. She was incredible. One of her
favorite sayings was; oWe've gotta keep moving forward. No matter how, tough times git, ..
we've gotta keep moving forward. T And that Ts what I did. It was all I knew how to do. But
didn Tt know where I was going. I would end up at a place and make the most out of it.
Sometimes things worked out. Sometimes they didn Tt, ? :
In 1992, Arrington, a woman, whose worst sick days were battling a week-long bout of the
flu, was stricken with a neurological disorder that baffled and continues to baffle doctors,
(and she has been treated by the best - Mayo Clinic, Georgetown Hospital, Suburban
Hospital, Duke University Medical Center, and the list goes on). If there was a perfect time
to give up, life had handed Arrington a good excuse. Blinding nystagmus, an unstable gait,
and dizziness forced her to live within the confines of her Silver Spring; Maryland home. "
Yet, instead of throwing in the towel, Arrington decided it was time to write. |
oI didn Tt accept what doctors told me ... that most people they had treated with my condition
only got worse, But just in case they might have gotten it right... this time, I wanted to tell my
daughter my story in my words. I didn Tt want to make my exit leaving her with as many
unanswered questions about her parents as I had about mine. So, I moved into my den next to

Arrington did more than make up stories. She wrote book-length sagas. In 2000, she moved
back to her roots " Wilson, North Carolina, not far from her birthplace. In 2004, Arrington
published her first novel, Stay The Course, to an overwhelming positive response. In March "
2006, Arrington released her second novel, On The Edge, and Words Of Comfort, her first
collection of poems and inspirational writings. I didn Tt have to ask Arrington how she
managed to chronicle three different genres of books while living with her ailment, because I
