For once, be ahead of the curve and change all this bullshit. The kids are getting death threats. Hobbe Yonge (talk) 00:27, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
They cannot let the narrative be broken. They will not let you correct the record. The truth is irrelevant.
Best course of action is to start a new wiki page called on this event calling it the Lincoln Memorial Hoax. Your concern for the kids is admirable, but those that are invested in the narrative do not care. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:601:5800:EDB2:E3E9:F81E:59F7 (talk) 01:29, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

PROPOSAL: Propose splitting this article into two articles (1) Indigenous Peoples' March (2) Covington Catholic Incident.
DISCUSSION: Rationale: Seems to me the incident with the Covington High School has notability of its own, to the point of taking over the documentation of the "first ever" Indigenous People's March. According to the article, the Covington incident didn't even happen at the same time as the march and it involved participants of other concurrent marches (Black Hebrew Israelites and March for Life). Why not establish its notability and separate the separate topics into different articles. Other thoughts? Peace, MPS (talk) 17:01, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
VOTING:
DISCUSSION:
Perhaps Religious minority marches in Washington in 2018, since Catholics are also a religious minority. MPS1992 (talk) 00:05, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
Here you go. I'm too new to start this but someone else can click on it:

Why the notability? Seems because the incident was recorded and went viral in the public and also topical in the news media. What's it about? The main categories seem to be teenage politics, conservative activism, and activism associated with education (in this case conservative education). Why the outrage? Seems to be due to the usage of young people as activists, and how young people normally behave being amplified by politics. Who's paying for it? The union of MAGA and Right to Life, along with the bus rides from distant high schools indicate funding. The label of Catholic on the high school and the associated activism indicate either the Pope is directing (unlikely) or the teens are being piloted by older conservative activists, who appear to be unnamed. -Inowen (nlfte) 22:12, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
@Inowen: Can you explain why you added the ((why)) tag to At the end of the formal program, an incident (see section below) occurred between a group of high school students who had been attending a concurrent[why?] March for Life rally, and and a smaller group of people who had marched in the Indigenous Peoples March, with focus on American Indian activist Nathan Phillips.
? I'm not sure what's unclear about it. GorillaWarfare (talk) 01:06, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
Not sure how to fit it into the article, but Owensboro Catholic High School#Controversy mentions some additional fallout from the Covington Catholic controversy. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 08:27, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
This somewhat mirrors the Gamergate Controversy, in that now a very notable part of this event is the reaction to it, namely the harrassment and death threats the kids have received. The Washington Post has a good summary of it all here. Mr Ernie (talk) 10:18, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
Ok, based on discussion, I split the article. MAGAkids incident covers the face-off between Covington MAGA-hat kids, black hebrews, and Nathan Phillips... while the Indigenous Peoples March article covers the march itself. Peace, MPS (talk) 18:26, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
the school is well ranked at number 17 in the state and the kids are well behaved educated. they go on to great universities like ganiesville albany new york wisconsin.. they are kids come on already. they have good hearts and were showing off .the kid in the video was shocked at the attention but hes no racist.. his school friend in the video is a spanish speaking guy who clearly is a descendant of mexicand or south americans they are good kids no need to geralize. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.139.193.163 (talk) 08:20, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
