Speaker 1: Last week, a group of twelve liberal religious leaders were
Speaker 1: arrested for creating a disturbance at the Heart Senate office building.
Speaker 1: They say their protest is a restart of the Poor
Speaker 1: People's Campaign that Dr Martin Luther King was leading in
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty eight. The group is planning protests in state
Speaker 1: capitals around the country to restart the moral narrative about poverty.
Speaker 1: They hope to influence the two thousand eighteen midterm elections.
Speaker 1: Hurricane Katrina van der Huvel wrote a Washington Post column
Speaker 1: to support this revived to Poor People's campaign, and folks,
Speaker 1: it was a litany of the usual liberal complaints, income inequality,
Speaker 1: mass incarceration, voting disenfranchisement, catastrophic climate change, really hard on
Speaker 1: the poor, and all arrest. Her major thrust was that
Speaker 1: Republicans care only about the rich and big corporations while
Speaker 1: the little guys suffers and suffers some more so fifty
Speaker 1: years after Dr King's Poor People Campaign, the left wants
Speaker 1: us to believe that nothing has changed. There's been zero progress.
Speaker 1: America's unjust, it's unfair, hell bent on discriminating against people,
Speaker 1: throwing innocent people in jail, making sure the poor stay poor.
Speaker 1: So I have to ask, where were all of these
Speaker 1: socially just morally upright liberals hiding during the Obama years.
Speaker 1: They certainly weren't organizing protests on behalf of the poor
Speaker 1: during those eight years. What happened to the poor? Where
Speaker 1: were the poor? Were they not poor? Did Obama cure
Speaker 1: poverty and Trump bring it back? What happened? Any ideas?
