🚨JOIN the Poor People’s Campaign for Moral Monday: Poverty (Un)Measured and hear from poor and low-income people, economists and faith leaders who will challenge the dominant narratives on poverty, a narrative that blames poor people for our situation, frames poverty as a racial issue to undermine multi-racial solidarity, and doesn’t recognize the full 140 million and growing who live in poverty or are one emergency away from poverty.

Working poor individuals and families all over this land filled with plenty...shame on America's legislative and executive branches of government for withholding justice, equity, and the pursuit of happiness.
Thank you for continuing to work to influence Joe Manchin of WV, showing financial 'lie' that $11/hr is enough.,, and to stop filibuster
Too many Americans without homes, clean water, clean air, access to broadband and telecommunications, land to grow healthy and sustainable food...
We the people are the social economic infrastructure
Gwen Brown 'here/ Boston Fight Poverty not the Poor.
We, the people Are the foundation of the infrastructure... Invest in Americans.. 12, 800 a year is not an acceptable wage!!!
People just don’t want to understand because they are not living this type of life. Stop blaming folks for trying to do their best when society makes it harder. Why do people want to see more homeless by evicting?
Rich people don't pay for their luxury items but there repos don't hurt there credit standings. No one says you bought a airplane and didn't pay for it but credit is still extended to them.
Anushiik. Thank you from Ramapough Munsee Lunaape Nation.
Solidarity from the Mormon Liberation Theology Project.
The politicians make 12,800 in perks and free services.

America take off your blinders. See us all. “Live Life!” Much Love 💕
It isn’t right. Those credit scores are holding people back. Who developed that system? My young adult children who are trying their best can’t get an apartment or house.
Public Schools are full of Lead Paint and Pipes. Air Vents and ducts need to be cleaned before students and teachers go back to school! #BuildBackBetter
Somebody's been hurting our people and it's gone on FAR too long and we WON'T be silent ANYMORE!
Mississippi Thank you for sharing 🙏❤
A radical redistribution of wealth resulting in the end of our consumer capitalist economic system is needed. No more band aids.
My mind stayed on freedom!
There was a white Viet Nam vet on here Mary.
Hello Family☺💜💜💜💜 "FORWARD TOGETHER"
Thank you all for your hearts!
The Massachusetts Poor People's Campaign is standing in solidarity with St. Vincent Hospital nurses who have been on strike since March 8. The nurses are organized with the Massachusetts Nurses Association.
The strike began when Tenet [the corporate owner] had refused to negotiate with the nurses over improvements and unsafe patient care conditions in the hospital. The poor conditions have only been exacerbated by the pandemic, in the last year alone, nurses have filed more than 600 official “unsafe staffing” reports in which nurses informed management that patient care conditions jeopardized the safety of their patients.
The nurses also report their patients in Worcester have experienced potentially dangerous delays in medications and other treatments, all due to lack of appropriate staffing, excessive patient assignments, and cuts to valuable support staff. #ForwardTogether

Days of Liberation: The Risen Christ?
This is the scripture assigned by my church, and wish had been discussed not just read to us. Thank you for focusing it...
As an Episcopalian out of the Anglican tradition I would say there is a desire to be "both/and" in considering meaning of Resurrection. . . We can believe BOTH in actual physical resurrection of Jesus AND in the transcendent work of ALL who follow in the Way of Jesus Christ, those who articulated in the book of Acts as read to us: to BE the source of SHARING all we have with one another so that ALL live out of God's abundance....
Good evening, Freedom Church Saints! Please be sure to put your prayer requests into the chat so we can lift them up during Prayers of the People.
I love this song. There's even one, I Dreamed I Saw Phil Ochs Last Night.
I AM🙌NOT in agreement with the likening of Immanuel the Christ as an insurrectionist nor do I attest to being one!!!
Thank you from Morgan Hill, California, Mutsun Ohlone land, south Santa Clara County. . .

The median wealth for white families was $188,200 in 2019 compared to $24,100 for Black families and $36,100 for Hispanic families according to the Fed’s 2019 Survey of Consumer Finances. And according to a 2019 McKinsey study, the median white family had ten times the wealth of the median Black family, “in part because white families garnered significantly more wealth … while median wealth for Black families did not grow at all in real terms over that period.”

Could the solution be hiding in our 401ks?Only if they choose to.
You're not alone. There are a lot of people that have never made 24,000 a year ( I truly can not say for sure my heritage). I just know what it feels like to be looked down on, and made fun of. You are not alone. Its time we all said No more, we are all human beings. Speak up, and Stand up, and said no more. We all bleed red!!!

The U.S. poverty line has defined deprivation down over time, rendering invisible 100 million people who are poor or one emergency away from being poor.
An accurate poverty measure is a moral mandate.

"I remember calling the 311 line to see what help I could get and was told over and over that there “wasn’t much they could do” being sent from one overwhelmed and underfund organization after the next." - Erica Nanton #MoralMonday #PoorPeoplesCampaign @IllinoisPPC
