Over 140 labor and community organizations have come together across the country to launch the “Living Wage for All” campaign, advancing bold visions and actions to address the affordability crisis, a centerpiece of which is raising the minimum wage closer to the actual cost of living (at least $25 nationwide and $30 in higher-cost regions) with no exceptions. Working people across the country are questioning the plea to ‘join us to save democracy’ when democracy has not worked for them, as they have to work multiple jobs and still aren’t able to make ends meet. Come and hear about how this coalition is demonstrating that democracy can deliver on working people’s top concern, their survival, in order to restore faith in the idea that democracy is worth saving, and how you can join this campaign. With: Saru Jayaraman,President, One Fair Wage; Angela Glover Blackwell, renowned Civil Rights and democracy and equity activist, now “Founder-in-Residence” at PolicyLink, the highly influential organization she started in 1999; and award-winning author, filmmaker, scholar, and one of the planet’s leading experts on and advocate for a just food system, Raj Patel.
