March on Wall Street on the Anniversary on the day Martin Luther King gave
his life fighting for social and economic justice. Why? Because we must demand
that the needs of the people come before the greed of the super rich.
Millions are jobless and homeless, and millions more will be living on the
streets
if the government continues to waste trillions of dollars on saving wealthy
bankers instead of saving people.
Dr. King would have been appalled and opposed to the terrible siege of Gaza
as well as the continuing occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.
And just as King knew that the struggle for civil rights at home had to also
be part of the struggle against war abroad, he understood that no one,
regardless of their race would be free until everyone had the right to a
decent
paying job or an income for those unable to work. Most importantly, King also
understood that âFreedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it
must
be demanded by the oppressed.â The time for suffering in silence has come to
an end. Nothing will change unless our desperation and anger is channeled
into a mighty movement that unites and fights. Itâs time to march on Wall
St.
Come to the march, and tell everyone you know to come with you.
