Ralph Abernathy's m a r c h through Georgia principally protesting
the recent deaths at Augusta and Jackson is scheduled.to end at the
capital with speeches and demonstrations on Saturday. So far, enthus-.
iasm for Abernathy's effort to rekindle the nonviolent spark of the mi$-*
60,s has been spotty, Last Thursday'the walkers had dwindled to 200
and the chief spokesman for'the Southern Christian-Leadership Confer-
ence was resorting to publicity stunts to build a wider acccptance and
participation that would have shocked the sensitivities of Martin King.
to protect the safety of the m a r c h e r s (as President Johnson had done in
the 1965 Selma to Montgomery m a r c h when major violence waa thrcat-
ened). Secondly, Abernathy has called for P a n t h e r e n d Black Muslim
support and has scheduled prominent Black Panther David Hilliard to
speak on Saturday.
What King was able to promote with personal dy-
namics and "ghutzpah",
the duller Abernathy must attempt by trickery.
A train of sympathizers is still scheduled to dcpart Washington F r i d a y ,
to take part in demonstrations on Saturday. Many observers of the
racial scene bclicve Abernathy may be more interested in promoting .
Abcrnathy and the SCLC than in memorializing the recent victims of
violence.
