June 18th Mobilization Tour Comes to Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and Kansas!

Start: 2022-02-28 19:00:00 UTC Central Daylight Time (US & Canada) (GMT-05:00)

This is a virtual event

The Mass Poor People's & Low-Wage Workers' Assembly and Moral March on Washington and to the Polls Mobilization Tour is coming to Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and Kansas for a regional Moral Monday at 7pm CT / 8pm ET. The Tour Stop comes on the eve of the primary election in Texas. The priorities and demands of poor and low-wealth Texans and neighbors will be front and center as we continue to demonstrate the voting and moral power of those most impacted by the policy violence of the US Congress and state houses.

Speakers who are directly impacted by the policy violence of the US Congress in these states will headline the event.

The Mobilization Tour will make at least ten stops nationwide to do M.O.R.E.: Mobilize, Organize, Register and Educate people for a movement that votes as we move towards the Mass Poor People’s & Low-Wage Workers’ Assembly and Moral March on Washington and to the Polls on June 18, 2022.

They will be joined by faith leaders and artists to demand this nation do MORE to live up its possibilities:

  • MORE to fully address the interlocking injustices of systemic racism, poverty, ecological devastation and the denial of health care, militarism and the war economy and the false moral narrative of religious nationalism.

  • MORE to change the narrative and build the power of those most impacted by these injustices.

  • MORE to realize a Third Reconstruction agenda that can build this country from the bottom up and realize the nation we have yet to be.

The Mass Poor People’s & Low-Wage Workers’ Assembly & Moral March on Washington and to the Polls on June 18, 2022 will be a generationally-transformative declaration of the power of poor and low-wealth people and our moral allies to say that this system is killing ALL of us and we can’twe won’twe refuse to be silent anymore!

Due to Covid precautions, this event will be online and experienced at www.poorpeoplescampaign.org/livestream.

“It is NOT just a day of action. It is a declaration of an ongoing, committed moral movement to 1) Shift the moral narrative; 2) Build power; and 3) Make real policies to fully address poverty and low wealth from the bottom up.”

—Bishop William J. Barber II and Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis
