Continuing King's Legacy: Fighting for $15 Family Wages

Start: Wednesday, April 04, 2018 6:00 PM

Join Winston-Salem faith leaders, Working America, city workers, and community members
as we rally to commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s legacy of championing working
people’s rights.

Dr. King combined the struggle for civil rights and the struggle for economic justice. 50 years after King’s assassination, too many people in our community still can’t afford basic necessities.

Join us as we remember Dr. King, and continue his legacy by fighting for $15 family wages for city workers.

Following the rally, join us for an ecumenical worship service at Goler Memorial A.M.E Zion Church.
