Vote Out Poverty
Jon White
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 me in signing a pledge to Vote Out Poverty in
2008?
