Rappers like 2Chainz, Sa-Roc and others have opted to join Minister Louis Farrakhan’s massive rally in Washington D.C. to mark the 20th Anniversary of the Million Man March. This is not a celebration though, as the theme of the movement is deemed “Justice Or Else.”

The march is slated for October 10, 2015.

Farrakhan has met with a number of notables over the last year as instances of injustice and police brutality have increased. There have been images with Dame Dash, Ice Cube, Young Thug, Sway, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian on social media and traditional media.

In this promotional video, #JusticeOrElse gets shout outs from 2 Chainz, Ezzy, Lil Bibby, Palo Mula, Bone Crusher, Kaleena Harper, and Sa-Roc.

The original Million Man March convened over a million men (and others) that gathered peacefully on the National Mall in D.C. The march focused on personal atonement, social and societal ills, economic empowerment and the negative portrayal of African American men in media outlets.

Many Black women were upset that they were not included in the plans. The Justice Of Else rally includes all races, genders and others who opposes injustice and systemic wrongdoing .
