People's Movement Assembly-- Global Day of Action
Saturday, January 26, 10:00am
On Saturday, January 26, 2008, Atlanta, host city of the first US Social Forum, will be the venue for a statewide People's Movement Assembly, beginning with a caravan and rally at the State Capitol.
Initiated by the organizers of the annual Poor People's Day events at the Capitol and inspired by the year 2008 being the 40th anniversary of the historic Poor People's Campaign for Economic Justice launched by Dr. King, this multi-pronged effort seeks to bring the voice, aspirations, needs and demands of millions of working and poor people to the Georgia Capitol.
Following the caravan and rally, participants will meet to exchange views, plan ongoing actions and cement relationships and networks. Hundreds of volunteers are needed throughout the state to mobilize their communities.
Participation in the January 26 action is open to all who believe "ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE."
