Artists performing now at #poorpeoplescampaign Mass Meeting in #LosAngeles. There's never been a successful movement without arts & culture.

Asking the youngest and oldest in the room to give their blessings to the #poorpeoplescampaign in #LosAngeles right now.

Civil disobedience alone doesn't work, it has to be connected to a season, to an agenda." - Rev. Barber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Harriet Tubman, Dorothy Day, Rabbi Heschel, #MLK are dead-but we are their children, children of the #breakthrough! #poorpeoplescampaign

This is about right vs wrong-voting rights, LGBTQ rights, equal protection under the law are moral issues. #poorpeoplescampaign

Because you've taken bread out of the mouths of the poor, you'll never move into your luxury home in Mar-a-Lago #Bible #poorpeoplescampaign

@RevDrBarber: If you pray, you also ought to prophesy. You can't pray for President while he's also preying on the poor #poorpeoplescampaign

We need a moral mvt to take back religion from those who hijacked it. This isn’t left v right, this is right v wrong! #PoorPeoplesCampaign

There are more scriptures about how to treat the poor and least of these than almost any other. @RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

@RevDrBarber: We have moved from era of civil rights to era of human rights, as #MLK said. #poorpeoplescampaign

The only way to break through is with a moral revival. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Rev. Barber: The budgets of this nation are busted because of all the wars we should never have entered. #poorpeoplescampaign

"With the amount of money spent on war, we could have bought everyone healthcare!" -@RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Rev. Barber: How many people were in an economic hurricane before the hurricanes ever hit? #poorpeoplescampaign

"You do realize that Jesus was for universal healthcare? He healed everybody, and he never charged a leper a co-pay." #poorpeoplescampaign

Watch @RevDrBarber at the #PoorPeoplesCampaign Mass Meeting live right now! http://www.breachrepairers.org/livestream  #losangeles

Since if you can't pay your light bill, we all black in the dark! #Breakthrough #PoorPeoplesCampaign

The debate is not about health care as a human right, but is rather about how many people we can kick off. Shame!!!! #PoorPeoplesCampaign

"There are 400 families in this country making $197 million/hour, while we're locking people up for fighting for $15!" #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Can't undo hundreds of years of injustice by saying "let's all get along." Need more than equality, we need equity. #poorpeoplescampaign

"I'm so glad that they went to that @NancyPelosi press conference and said, 'All of us! All 11 million!'" -@RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

@RevDrBarber: White supremacy and white nationalism are about POLICY. #poorpeoplescampaign

"We must all, straight, gay, trans, and queer, fight racism!" -@RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Rev. Barber preaching the #poorpeoplescampaign to challenge racism, poverty, war economy, & ecological devastation.

You can be against extreme acts of racism, & still be racist-Denouncing hate not the same as denouncing #WhiteSupremacy #poorpeoplescampaign

White supremacy isn’t just seen in hateful acts and torches, but in policy! It’s not seen in statues, but in statutes! #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Parts of #LosAngeles plagued for years with toxic pollution. #poorpeoplescampaign

Many rural water systems are unable to provide clean drinking water in #California. #poorpeoplescampaign

"The election of @realDonaldTrump is a symptom of a much larger moral malice." @RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

"Poverty crosses all races!" -@RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

We can't ignore the issues of systemic racism, poverty, ecological devastation, and militarism. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

#California has the highest poverty rate when you factor in the cost of living. #poorpeoplescampaign

White supremacists don't care about white people-the policies they support hurt poor white people. #poorpeoplescampaign

"It's not just what is in their hearts; its about what is in the heart of their policies!" -@RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Last election, we didn't even have one debate on poverty. #poorpeoplescampaign

@RevDrBarber: It's time for a breakthrough! #poorpeoplescampaign

@RevDrBarber: #poorpeoplescampaign engaged in "traveling seminar on activism," but needs to develop leaders in each place!

"All movements must be birthed indigenously." @RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

"Anyone who says we have not been here before, either does not know history or does not have their eyes open." #PoorPeoplesCampaign

There is still 37 million people without healthcare. We are here because the poor must be galvanized - @RevDrBarber #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Trump is a symptom. There is always a backlash, a response to attempts to make change for justice in this country. #poorpeoplescampaign

"I've been poor for most of my working life-it wasn't until I started doing the work I realized the lies I've been fed" #poorpeoplescampaign

Testimonies about #Labor & #HousingCrisis at #PoorPeoplesCampaign: If we look around and we see that we are rich in relationships

Those of us who are poor are experts in our own reality. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

"I am poor and have been for most of my life! This movement is for my father who was poor and blamed himself!" #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Your an expert in your own situation...be a part of the movement! #PoorPeoplesCampaign
