Watch: Rev Liz Theoharis on the “Costs of War at Home”
Rev. Liz Theoharis, Co-Chair of the Poor People’s Campaign explains the interconnection between militarism, poverty, and racism.
The Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival organizes and builds power among the poor today. It understands that those who have been cast out of the economy and who are living on the few remaining crumbs of its meager offerings are also articulating a way out of this wretched existence – not just for themselves, but for us all.
