Thousands of workers in more than 25 cities will walk off their jobs for eight minutes and 46 seconds on July 20, 2020, to go on Strike for Black Lives... These workers from fast food, nursing home, rideshare, airport and other industries, will stop working to demand the government and corporations abolish systemic racism... The coalition of racial, social and climate activists will converge to confront the current trifecta that’s harming Black and Brown communities—white supremacy, the public health emergency and a broken economy.

... Rev. Dr. William Barber II, co-chair of the Poor People’s Campaign said... “We can’t talk about racial justice in this moment without addressing income inequality. We must push toward economic uplift for everybody—poor and low-income Black people, white people, Brown people, Indigenous people, and Asian people. In other words: everybody in, nobody out.”
