History teaches us that it is exactly in moments like these that a movement of the many is necessary to force the nation into action. In the midst of a pandemic, economic collapse, a racial justice uprising, militarization of the police, and more, the key to real and lasting change lies within our communities — within our ability to come together in new and bold ways.
That’s why, one week from today, people from all around this country will join the Mass Poor People’s Assembly and Moral March on Washington Digital Justice Gathering on June 20, 2020. The Poor People’s Assembly and Moral March on Washington will be an historic, generationally transformative digital event. Across the internet and the airwaves we will drive the vision and agenda of our communities into the heart of the national narrative.
United for Peace and Justice (UFPJ) is proud to be a national mobilizing partner in the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival. We urge you to join us in helping to make June 20 the largest digital and social media gathering of poor and low-income people, moral and religious leaders, advocates, and people of conscience in this nation’s history.
