Poor People's Campaign

 

Are you ready for June 18? The Mass Poor People's & Low-Wage Workers' Assembly and Moral March on Washington and to the Polls is this month! People from all across the country are coming together to mount a challenge to the interlocking evils of systemic racism, poverty, the war economy, ecological devastation, the denial of healthcare and the distorted moral narrative of religious nationalism. Sign up and let us know you're coming.   Here are some ways to prepare yourself and others for this transformational event…   Attend our welcome session Tuesday June 7, 3:30pm | RSVP (live online) Thursday June 9, 6pm | RSVP (recording and Q&A) Final preparations are being put in place for a California delegation, which includes 40 people impacted by poverty and dozens of moral witnesses, advocates/allies and faith leaders. This “Welcome to June 18” session will be focused on both in-person and virtual participation, and we will hear about the events leading up to and planned for the Mass Assembly. Several campaign organizers will be offering testimony about why they are "going BACK to Washington," having participated in one or more direct actions in D.C. in 2021.   There will be a breakout session for people planning to participate virtually, including how to host or join a watch party. This meeting will be closed-captioned.
