This issue of The Weekly Standard examined the controversial Million Man March organized by Louis Farrakhan, with an editorial condemning what the magazine termed a "swamp of hatred." The cover story analyzed the march's significance while the issue also featured pieces on Republican political maneuvering, including coverage of the emerging 1996 presidential race dynamics between Clinton and Dole, debates over tax cuts and government spending, and commentary on conservative activism and American cultural issues including the cult of victimization.
