California Poor People’s Campaign

When over 140 Million Americans are poor or living with low-wages, in the wealthiest country ever to exist, it's time for systemic change.

In 1968, Dr. MLK Jr. started the first Poor People's Campaign to spark a radical revolution of values across the nation. The vision of the Campaign was to build a mass movement beyond the scope of anything the country had seen, but in the days before the first mobilization King was assassinated.

The Poor People's Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival is picking up where King left off 50 years ago. We are building a movement led by poor and impacted folks, building across all lines of division, in order to topple the interlocking pillars of racism, poverty, militarism, environmental destruction and this country's distorted moral narrative.

Please help us achieve this goal by making a donation. Our fiscal sponsor is ETINA, a 501[c](3) non-profit charity. Donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. Thank you for making this movement with us! You can also make a big impact by contacting the Poor People's Campaign in your area and joining the local organizing.

Forward together, not one step back!
