The Banquet is April 7th, 2012 at 6:00 pm. Our Guest Speaker is Larry Hamm is the Chairperson for the Peoples’ Organization for Progress in New Jersey witha special presentation by Jasiri X.
The Peoples Organization for Progress was inspired by the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott and now supported by over 100 organizations they are holding daily rallies and pickets.
The Campaign was launched on June 27th to dramatize the impact of draconian public policies on ordinary people. POP vows to host this daily action everyday for 381 days in honor of the epic Montgomery Bus Boycott that propelled a young Martin Luther King Jr. onto national consciousness. A ‘national jobs program’ is at the top of the list of the core issues driving the Daily Campaign.
