I am moved and inspired to make possible, what is thought impossible. To challenge the norm. To advocate & empower. Y a caminar por la justicia y equidad

A Thread: Atlanta residents and advocates are gathering for a Moral Mass Meeting to lift up the importance of a movement that votes! They are joined by @RevDrBarber & @liztheo, Co-Chairs of the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival.

That’s right! All need to address poverty for the emergency that it is!

[Institute for Policy Studies @IPS_DC]

In the richest country on Earth, more than 20% of adults in the last 30 days have reported experiencing some form of food insecurity.

Lawmakers need to address poverty as the emergency that it is. @liztheo of @UniteThePoor @KairosCenterNYC in @thenation: https://t.co/PBZ9iUcskH

This morning, we are planning to have a #PalmSunday service at the location where a young, Black LGBTQ activist was killed, and have been met by a swarm of police telling us we are not allowed to be here. We will still find a way to sing, pray, and have our service.

Coyuntura de Guate, nuevamente se presta para reflexionar que opciones y acciones estamos realizando. Miércoles 28 de julio próximo, a las 10am, Centroamérica.

¿Por qué estamos como estamos en el país? ¿Qué caminos debemos tomar para hacer los cambios estructurales en el país?

This #MoralMonday we’re taking it to the states. This is what a Season of Nonviolent Moral Direct Action looks like today in #Arizona!

The #PoorPeoplesCampaign & our movement partners are on our way to Senator Sinema now! WHICH SIDE IS SHE ON?

[Poor People's Campaign @UniteThePoor]

In Arizona you have to work 70 hours a week to afford a basic 2 bedroom apartment. That ain't right.

See today's report from the #PoorPeoplesCampaign sit-in outside of @SenatorSinema's AZ office to #EndTheFilibusterNow:

.@shaillybarnes takes us through @unitethepoor’s plan for a moral budget -- one that recognizes that we have an abundance of resources and investing them into meeting everyone’s needs is good for the economy.

Este año 28 mujeres y niñas han sido asesinadas. Prendas de ropa y flores en la Plaza de Las Niñas, representan su ausencia entre nosotras. #NiUnaMás

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Lots of people are rediscovering and re-sharing this post this morning, so I’m putting it again here.

Listen to @esglaude. Really take in his words.

The work we have ahead of us is deep, and transcends elections. It always has been. And we are called to do it.

[ACLU @ACLU]

BREAKING: We're receiving reports that at least one protester was abducted off the streets today by unmarked “officers” — this time in New York City.

These dangerous, abusive, and indefensible actions must stop. Law enforcement must be held accountable.

Protests in Hong Kong have been going on for nine weeks. Our latest visual investigation is an explainer that breaks down the innovative tactics demonstrators are using to organize. https://t.co/vNhUVlunXQ

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

One year ago today, I was a long-shot candidate for Congress that debuted this video.

We had no news coverage, virtually no elected officials had endorsed us, and by Election Day we were outspent 10-1.

But what we did have was the power of the people ⬇️

El 29/05 de 1978, campesinos se reunieron pacíficamente en la plaza de Panzós para solicitar acceso a tierra. El ejército les ametralló.

Recordamos a Mamá Maquín y a las miles de víctimas del genocidio.
Que nuestra historia siempre vaya en nuestra memoria.

@JooLara 😭😍😍😍 ay! Que cosa más bella!!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

I’m not going to quote the NY Post’s horrifying, hateful cover.

Here’s 1 fact: @IlhanMN is a cosponsor of the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund. She‘s done more for 9/11 families than the GOP who won’t even support healthcare for 1st responders- yet are happy to weaponize her faith.
