March  on Wall Street on the Anniversary on the day Martin Luther King gave 
his life  fighting for social and economic justice. Why? Because we must demand 
that the  needs of the people come before the greed of the super rich. 
Millions are  jobless and homeless, and millions more will be living on the streets 
if the  government continues to waste trillions of dollars on saving wealthy 
bankers  instead of saving people.
Dr. King would have been appalled and opposed to  the terrible siege of Gaza 
as well as the continuing occupations of Iraq and  Afghanistan.

And just as King knew that the struggle for civil rights at  home had to also 
be part of the struggle against war abroad, he understood that  no one, 
regardless of their race would be free until everyone had the right to a  decent 
paying job or an income for those unable to work. Most importantly, King  also 
understood that “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it  must 
be demanded by the oppressed.” The time for suffering in silence has  come to 
an end. Nothing will change unless our desperation and anger is  channeled 
into a mighty movement that unites and fights.  It’s time to  march on Wall St. 
Come to the march, and tell everyone you know to come with  you.
