IE Million Fathers March
In a previous posting, I mentioned Mynisha's Circle and the possibility, moving forward, of putting our focus on fathering - specifically, the need for fathers in our community to take responsibility for the upbringing and well being of their children. Along those lines, an interesting event is being planned for San Bernardino on Saturday, Aug. 9. It's called the IE Million Fathers March, part of a nationwide campaign to create "a partnership between fathers and their children's education in communities across America." That, according to local organizer Terry Boykins, founder of 4Positive Knowledge. He's working with the San Bernardino City Unified School District in putting on the event, which will include presentations and activities throughout the day at the Carousel Mall. The line up for the march itself begins at 9:30 a.m. at the mall's parking lot.
