WHO: Student Minister Abel Muhammad, Representative to the Spanish Speaking Community, The Nation of Islam; Rev. Lonnie Newman, Founding Member, Christian STEM Scholars Academy; Rabbi Shemaiah Clark, DD, Ph.D.; Phillip Jackson, The Million Father March and The Black Star Project, and 50 people of faith.
WHAT: The Million Father March along with Christian, Muslims and Jews will pray for the safety and security of all Chicago children during the coming school year. Police and educators, by themselves, are not enough to keep our children safe during the coming school year. Parents, communities and faith organizations must also be involved to successfully educate our children and to keep them safe.
WHEN: Sunday, August 31, 2014
3:15 pm (photo opportunities)

WHERE: Mollison Elementary School
4415 South King Drive - 400 East
Chicago, Illinois
Why: When fathers are at schools, schools are safer. When fathers are at schools, students have better conduct. When fathers are at schools, children learn more and better. Fathers can, should and must play a critical role in the education of children. Schools cannot succeed without the support, participation and engagement of fathers and men. The Million Father March started in a church basement on Chicago's south side 11 years ago. Today, Christians, Muslims and Jews come together to Pray Around the Schools. The Million Father March has now grown to more than one million fathers in 500 cities across America taking their children to school.
