1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Last week, a group of twelve liberal religious leaders were

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: arrested for creating a disturbance at the Heart Senate office building.

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: They say their protest is a restart of the Poor

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: People's Campaign that Dr Martin Luther King was leading in

5
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty eight. The group is planning protests in state

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: capitals around the country to restart the moral narrative about poverty.

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: They hope to influence the two thousand eighteen midterm elections.

8
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: Hurricane Katrina van der Huvel wrote a Washington Post column

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: to support this revived to Poor People's campaign, and folks,

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: it was a litany of the usual liberal complaints, income inequality,

11
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: mass incarceration, voting disenfranchisement, catastrophic climate change, really hard on

12
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: the poor, and all arrest. Her major thrust was that

13
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: Republicans care only about the rich and big corporations while

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: the little guys suffers and suffers some more so fifty

15
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: years after Dr King's Poor People Campaign, the left wants

16
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: us to believe that nothing has changed. There's been zero progress.

17
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: America's unjust, it's unfair, hell bent on discriminating against people,

18
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,759
Speaker 1: throwing innocent people in jail, making sure the poor stay poor.

19
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: So I have to ask, where were all of these

20
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: socially just morally upright liberals hiding during the Obama years.

21
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: They certainly weren't organizing protests on behalf of the poor

22
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: during those eight years. What happened to the poor? Where

23
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: were the poor? Were they not poor? Did Obama cure

24
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: poverty and Trump bring it back? What happened? Any ideas?

25
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,000
