 Kairos Center for Religions, Rights, and Social Justice\n(co-anchor of the 
 Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival)\n\n\nAs we 
 head into the November elections, we are increasingly aware of multiple 
 threats facing our communities: poverty and economic insecurity are on the 
 rise, impacting 40 percent of the people in this country; widespread 
 low-wages, underemployment and the rising costs of basic needs are 
 compromising our ability to provide for ourselves and our loved ones; 
 climate crisis rages on unabated, fueled by the ongoing investments in 
 polluting industries that poison our communities; police violence, mass 
 incarceration and immigration enforcement bring the military state to our 
 daily lives, while brutal wars continue with near impunity. \n\nThese 
 threats to our democracy and our daily lives are compelling communities to 
 take action for themselves, through mutual aid, ministry, organizing, 
 cultural production and more, to meet our needs, build community, push back 
 on authoritarianism and establish newfound power for the days 
 ahead.\n\nThis is why on October 17, the Kairos Center is bringing together 
 experts on the economy, militarism, the rise of authoritarianism and 
 Project 2025, alongside religious leaders and organizers, to offer a 
 concrete analysis of our current context and how our movements and 
 organizations are responding. \n\nJoin us as we discuss the challenges and 
 opportunities of this “kairos moment” and how we can build on lessons 
 from the pandemic era to build up powerful movements for the long 
 haul.\n\n\nABOUT:  Kairos Center for Religions, Rights, and Social Justice 
 (Poor People's Campaign)\n\nThe Kairos Center for Religions, Rights, and 
 Social Justice is a national organization committed to building a movement 
 to end poverty, led by the poor. \n\nDrawing on the power of religions and 
 human rights, we are a center for movement strategy, coordination, and 
 education among the poor across all lines of division. \n\nAmong other 
 projects, we co-anchor the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for 
 Moral Revival. \n\n
