The Poor People's Campaign

The Poor People's Campaign is a social movement that advocates for economic justice and policies to reduce poverty. Originally led by Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, it seeks to amplify the voices of marginalized low-income individuals and push for systemic change, such as fair wages, healthcare, housing, and education. The current campaign continues these efforts through grassroots organizing, peaceful protests, and policy advocacy to address the root causes of poverty and create a more equitable society.
