Voting rights, equitable education for all, combating poverty, jobs and economic justice, the Racial Justice Act, protecting constitutional rights, equal protection under the law and the widespread unjust treatment of immigrants will shape this year’s People’s Assembly. The Historic Thousands on Jones Street People’s Assembly Coalition is considered to be one of the nation’s broadest and diverse anti-racist, anti-poverty and anti-war coalition movements in the nation. For over five years, the Coalition has fought for a 14-point Progressive Legislative Agenda in the NC General Assembly. On February 11th, people of all colors will come together to challenge persistent poverty, unequal education and voter suppression in North Carolina. We will show the nation that America is at its best when we struggle together for inclusiveness, diversity and opportunity.`
