This is a virtual event

At this meeting you will learn more about the Poor People's Campaign - A National Call for Moral Revival and how you and your organization can organize a delegation to attend and ensure that Virginia residents are fully represented on June 20, 2020 at the Poor People's Mass Assembly and Moral March on Washington.

We know the poor and dispossessed of this country must organize together to address systemic racism, poverty, militarism and the war economy, ecological devastation and the false moral narrative of religious nationalism. Our lives depend on it. There are over 140 million poor and low-wealth Americans, 43% of our nation and over 250,000 people a year are dying from poverty. This reality is constitutionally inconsistent, morally indefensible, and economically insane. We know that together we must RISE!

We refuse to let another election cycle go by while politicians can run for office without talking about and providing plans for how to address the issues that impact us all. We refuse to be paralyzed because our health care system is failing in its obligations to all of us, and in particular "the least of these." Now, more than ever, we need to speak out.

Join us on Zoom Sunday March 15 to learn how you can get involved. Spread the word!

Fight poverty, not the poor!

(The meeting will also be live streamed. Stay tuned for details.)
