But as disturbing as that event may be, it will occur on the same day that the nation celebrates the life of the greatest activist\/organizer in American history, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We know whose lessons we have to heed. So, this Sunday\u2019s Town Hall is all about organizing to block Trump\u2019s agenda, and the groundwork for a better tomorrow of solidarity and peace. First, we\u2019ll be joined by one of the most inspiring, tireless, and well-informed champions of economic fairness in the country, Erica Payne, founder and President of the Patriotic Millionaires. Erica will let us know how the Patriotic Millionaires are organizing to thwart Trump\u2019s wishes to pass an even-more reactionary tax bill, and make unprecedented cuts to essential Federal agencies as well as social services. And, since Sunday isn\u2019t about passive listening but active doing, we\u2019ll learn how PDA and all of our allies can join with Patriotic Millionaires to build a unified front that can persuade a clear majority of Americans to oppose Trump\u2019s agenda. Than we will be joined by two more brilliant organizers, Erika Andiola and Patti Serrano, who will update us on how PDA and everyone of us can best join the nationwide movement, active in every community, to protect, defend and support America\u2019s vast immigrant working class, without whom this country wouldn\u2019t function. Now is not the time to despair, but to express and practice solidarity! Just like MLK!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PDAMERICA \u2022 Started streaming 49 minutes ago When we meet for our Town Hall on Sunday, it\u2019ll be less than 24 hours until Donald Trump is sworn in as President.
