VIDEO: Glenn Beck Rally, 8/28. Where the Black People At?
This past Saturday, 47 years to the day that Martin Luther King, Jr., declared he had a dream, we went to "Beckapalooza" to investigate the meaning of restoring America's honor.
For an event aimed at reclaiming the civil rights movement, the crowd was pretty homogenous. There may have been a lot of red, white, and blue — but there wasn't a ton of black in attendance.
Armed with a camera and a t-shirt that read "America Deserves Better" (circa 2008), we asked rally attendees what they thought the Tea Party could do to inspire more black people to join their cause.
