“This inequality isn’t a result of bad policies. It is historically and structrually part of American capitalism itself. The system has been built on the exploitation of all workers, but the superexploitation of Black workers produced extra surplus value. Slavery and the exploitation that followed produced U.S. capitalism’s extraordinary growth.” -David Bacon ...
Worker Strikes Important for Today's Movement
www.laprogressive.com
David Bacon: Overwhelmingly they have been organized by workers themselves, indicating both a deep level of anger over the conditions, and an understanding that striking is an effective form of protest and a means to change them.“I wasn’t the only one. Coworkers would just disappear for weeks. We were supposed to be alerted if coworkers tested positive. But since there were so few tests, we often wouldn’t hear anything at all.” -Claire Chadwick, Kansas Poor People's Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival ...

“Just in 2014, as Black Lives Matter demonstrations spread across the country, more than 500 law enforcement agencies received MRAP armored personnel carriers, designed to withstand bomb blasts in war theaters like Afghanistan and Iraq. Police in North Little Rock, Arkansas (population: 62,000) got two MARCbots, armed robots designed for war in Afghanistan.” -Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II & Phyllis Bennis ...
Police and Pentagon Are Bringing Our Wars Home – InsideSources
www.insidesources.com
Uniformed U.S. soldiers occupied the center of the city, where an armored personnel carrier was stationed at a major intersection. Was it Kabul orSimilar to Vietnam war brought home. Guess it says we need to stop militarization. After going through a week of riots and domestic threats in south Minneapolis, this is so wrong. I don’t know how people can survive this for a long term.
Can you imagine what those cost? Why on earth are we wasting funds that could go to basic needs? Where are the fiscal conservatives??

“The social justice movement has always been the ‘good old boys’ club. But the ones who are doing the labor, the everyday labor are black women, especially black queer women. And so we’re saying at the end of the day, our stories matter. Our issues matter. And we deserve to have our messages amplified.”
-Rev. Bianca Davis-Lovelace, Washington Poor People's Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival ...
March, rally highlights deaths of black women at hands of police
www.kiro7.com
Hundreds marched through South Seattle with a message that the lives of black women matter, too.When we fight against discrimination we fight for all of gods children. Power to you my sister.
Imagine what would happen if we each placed the.other before self. Obviously someone has to go through the door first and is obligated to hold it open for the next. If there is bounty on the heads of black men then black mother's, sisters, daughters, and all those concerned should step up and support their concerns. This can operate concurrently with the fight for every marginalized group.
Yesss Rev B! Thanks to you and your co-organizers for doing this important work.
Thanks for sharing this post rev.barber and sisters continue doing a awesome job and ya"ll deserves hallelujah praise!!!
Yes! It was an amazing day and so well organized.
Keep going! ❤️
YES! Keep on keepin on!!!❤️
