DESCRIPTION:Kick-Off Rally for One Year Campaign\n\nMonday, June 21, 2021 @ 2:30 PM 
 PT\n\nLivestream 
 here:\n\nhttps://www.3rdreconstruction.org\n\n\https://www.facebook.com/anewppc/\n\nJoin 
 our virtual rally on June 21st, when the Poor People’s Campaign will 
 launch a one year campaign fighting forward every day against poverty and 
 other systemic ills towards a massive, generationally-transformative Moral 
 March on Washington and Poor People’s & Low-Wage Workers’ Assembly in 
 one year in June 2022.\n\nDuring this National Poor People’s and Low-Wage 
 Workers Rally, poor people, low-wage workers, moral and faith leaders and 
 advocates will gather online simultaneously with a socially-distant rally 
 at the North Carolina General Assembly in Raleigh, NC..\n\nWe are demanding 
 of our government a Third Reconstruction in America that addresses poverty 
 and low wages from the bottom up, as well as systemic racism, voter 
 suppression, health care access, and other critical human rights 
 issues.\n______________\n\nWhat is a 3rd 
 Reconstruction?\n\nhttps://www.3rdreconstruction.org/\n\nIt’s Time to 
 Fully Address Poverty and Low Wages from the Bottom Up!\n\nDrawing on the 
 transformational history of the First Reconstruction following the Civil 
 War and the Second Reconstruction of the civil rights struggles of the 20th 
 century, the Third Reconstruction is a revival of our constitutional 
 commitment to establish justice, provide for the general welfare, end 
 decades of austerity, and recognize that policies that center the 140 
 million are also good economic policies that can heal and transform the 
 nation.\n\nEmerging from the pain and organizing power of the 140 million 
 people living in poverty or with low wages in this nation, the 
 congressional resolution for a Third Reconstruction reflects an omnibus 
 vision for a fundamental restructuring of society that lifts from the 
 bottom. The non-partisan resolution comes as a response to years of 
 movement-building to create the collective resolve necessary to implement 
 real and transformational legislative action.\n\nThis resolution recognizes 
 that in order to build a true Third Reconstruction we must simultaneously 
 deal with the interlocking injustices of systemic racism, poverty, 
 ecological devastation and the denial of health care, militarism and the 
 distorted moral narrative of religious nationalism that blames the poor 
 instead of the systems that cause poverty.\n______________ \n
