Ending Poverty

Savina Martin

Dr. Savina Martin wrote and first shared this piece in 2016 in Boston, MA, on the eve of the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s Poor People’s Campaign and just before the 2017 launch of the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival. Inspired by the generations of men, women, and children who have struggled for justice, the piece honors their enduring legacy. Their courage and sacrifice continue to light our path forward.
