Sojourners: Christians for Justice and Peace

Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available.

The short explanation of this alert was:

History shows that a committed minority can transform our nation’s politics. 

Ending the scandal of extreme poverty at home and abroad has become a test of our faith and the social justice imperative of our time.
 
Today the number of Americans living in poverty is almost identical to 1968, the tragic year Dr. King was assassinated.  Since this tragic turning point in history, our nation has experienced 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, lacking both the bold leadership and national resolve to redress the root causes of poverty in America and around the world. 

Making poverty history starts with each and every one of us.   We are the committed minority that can make the seeming impossibility of ending extreme poverty become inevitable due to our collective action.  This is our moment. 

Will you join us in signing a pledge to Vote Out Poverty in 2008?
