Minister Louis Farrakhan Walks in Atlanta for Prostate Cancer Awareness with Media Coverage by A-1 Video Production

Atlanta, GA, October 17, 2007 --(PR.com)-- The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan walked 2 miles on the streets of Atlanta, GA on Saturday October 13th to promote the prevention of Prostate Cancer. As he walked from the Clark Atlanta campus field and headed up Martin Luther King Blvd., the youthful 74 year old Minister looked full of vitality and vigor. After he completed the walk, he looked as though he could have walked another two miles. His foundation is called the Louis Farrakhan Prostate Cancer Foundation and provides information and services via online website. Prostate cancer nearly took the Minister's life about one year ago but he now has no traces of the cancer at all. There were free prostate screenings being provided for all men and many took advantage of the services. Black men, in general, do not get checked as they should. After the age of 40 men should get checked once each year. Many men lined up to be tested after being urged to do so by Minister Farrakhan. The Minister also received proclamations including one from Mayor Shirley Franklin. This event was covered by A-1 Video Production. It was indeed a great day in Atlanta.
