DC-area Harley-Davidson backs out of ‘Ride for Justice’

FORT WASHINGTON, Md. (AP) — A Harley-Davison dealership has withdrawn its invitation to bikers who planned to meet at its Fort Washington location ahead of a Washington rally organized by Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.

The dealership’s owners had agreed to let bikers to gather at the location Oct. 10 before a “Ride for Justice” rally into Washington D.C. ahead of a march associated with the 20th anniversary of the Nation of Islam’s “Million Man March.” The dealership changed its stance following backlash, including an online petition condemning Farrakhan for advocating violence.

Farrakhan has said the upcoming march, “Justice or Else,” is intended to galvanize a more strategic movement for equality. The 1995 march was billed as a men-only event intended to encourage black men to commit to family values and improving their communities

  3. They are meeting across the street in the mall parking lot. Not like anything changed. Beware the media manipulation.

  4. Does this ride conflict with their Muslim party they had planned?

  6. You do know the HD business owners are black, right? And they've been supportive of such nonsense in the past.

    But I think the "blacklash" has started to come home to roost, finally.

  7. The Harley Davidson community has been turncoat traitors for many years. They were one of the first businesses that did away with the Confederate Flag many years ago and you morons forgot about that and still support them. Not this guy!
