LONGEST WALK 5 AT THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL JULY 15, 2016
On July 15, 2016, at 10 am, The Longest Walk 5 reached the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC for a day-long gathering at the National Mall, the culmination of a mission to cross the continent on foot, seeking cultural and spiritual solutions to end drug abuse and domestic violence. On February 13, 2016, hundreds of walkers runners and supporters gathered in La Jolla, California to be part of this 3600 mile, 5 month long journey to help put an end to these pressing issues. The July 15 “Visions - A Call to Action” event for the country focused on the raw reality of suffering in America, and what we can do to help people across the United States.
