Jason Coker on rural poverty in America https://t.co/u3dwP1083c via @YouTube Had a nice conversation with George Mason on his show @GoodGodProject where we talked about @TogetherForHope and the work we do to fight rural poverty in the US.

When the pandemic hit rural areas: rural ICUs overwhelmed by demand, lack of broadband access for workers & students, rural spaces mostly overlooked by the CARES Act. #rightthewrongs #prioritiesofhope https://t.co/b5ZSvVbe7M

@TogetherForHope look at this compared to our 301 counties of persistent rural poverty!!!

We need a change to our food systems if African farmers & consumers are to benefit. The @RockefellerFdn has taken bold risks for over a century through interventions in food security & agriculture development. We will discuss this and more at #AGRF2020 https://t.co/CLm8LOiOwm

Lake Charles, LA is torn to pieces... Pray for our neighbors down there. It was exhausting just to witness the damage. Grateful for the folks on the ground working to make life possible and better. @cbfinfo @CBFMS @TogetherForHope @marvknox

Jesmyn Ward ⁦@jesmimi⁩ is one of the best writers in America. Her sense of grief in all her books and life are vulnerably offered here. Her grief speaks for generations and generations and our current moment. Her voice is a beacon to a better future. https://t.co/oeNjpkVEAO

Many @bread4theworld participants are asking Congress to: increase SNAP benefits by 15%; extend the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) program; & provide $20 billion for international pandemic response. To make your voice heard, go here: https://t.co/SkTJfsuyP2

Please sign our letter to Senators asking them to remove vouchers from the upcoming #COVID19 bill. Help us get this letter out to your friends. Let’s help our poorest children—they are in public schools! Keep government out of our church schools! #txed https://t.co/1eXI1iDhHT

[Together for Hope @TogetherForHope]

The pandemic is placing intense and unequal pressures on families. All workers and families need access to emergency paid sick and family leave. This group of Christians, including #TFHope's @JasonCoker316 and @RGunterShapard, calls for #paidleaveforall. https://t.co/SoB2fJQGmZ

[Jason Coker @JasonCoker316]

So honored to be part of this. @16WAPTNews @WK_Kellogg_Fdn @Iramurray it was a pleasure to meet you and look forward to working together in the near future. @CivilRides @TogetherForHope @CBFMS join us for Mississippi Matters tonight!

[Jason Coker @JasonCoker316]

This is not something I often say, but I am extraordinarily proud of Mississippi today. There will be no banner of oppression flying over this state any longer. We wanted to #TakeItDownMS and we did!

[Jason Coker @JasonCoker316]

Here’s a spec farm (garden really) @TogetherForHope So many food policies are racist and classist! Here’s one intervention in that system. Anti-racist food for thought. @cbfinfo @ObamaFoundation @WK_Kellogg_Fdn @PhilRosenthal

[Jason Coker @JasonCoker316]

@TogetherForHope this is important to our network!

Private school vouchers don't improve student achievement. .FL spends a BILLION public dollars a year paying private schools without any oversight. https://t.co/VDd1EVg4TS @pfpsorg @splcenter #FLPublicEdVoter #YearOfTheTeacher @TCBGP @bisforberkshire @edu_historian

Delivering healthcare in rural communities presents unique challenges that have always required coordination & innovation. Now, more than ever, rural communities need access to proper resources to combat COVID-19. Sign up to learn more! #prioritiesofhope https://t.co/i2NL2h6m0U

Pandemic comes from the Greek: Pan = all, demos = people. We have been in a pandemic for much longer than that in the US—but not from the disease model. We have been working w/ a problem that affects 'all people' for decades: poverty.@JasonCoker316 #T4Hope https://t.co/RaR7zCCffG
