LIVE NOW: Edward Pinkney Of Benton Harbor Discusses Grassroots Empowerment
This week’s showLast week I attended the Democracy Convention in Madison Wisconsin. I participated on three panels representing Move To Amend that led to very in depth conversations on much that is occurring in our body politic today.
Before I go any further I ask that you help Move To Amend reach the 500,000 signature goal by signing the We The People Amendment. I met a lot of activists including Cindy Sheehan, Dr. Jill Stein, John Nichols, Reverend Edward Pinkney, and many others.
This week I am honored to have the Reverend Edward Pinkney, a powerhouse in Benton Harbor that is the driving force behind the protests and a real grassroots movement against the town having an Emergency Financial Manager. I want to use Reverend Pinkney as a segue into a discussion of empowering through the grassroots.
Give me a call. Let’s talk.
