“Fighting for Our Future in the 2022 Elections” – Featuring – Rev. Edward Pinkney from Benton Harbor, Mi., Kathy Powers of Chicago, Shauna Pandelidis of Sacramento, and Kenneth Mejia from Los Angeles (see more about our panelists below).
2022 will be a watershed year in the battle to demand a government that stops serving corporate profit and starts providing for human needs, reproductive freedom, ending state violence, and saving the earth.
Turnout in the 2020 election was the largest in over 100 years, and attacks on voting rights by fascist state legislatures and Supreme Court judges are not going to stop us. When the government fails to meet basic needs, it is time to take power into the people’s hands and rebuild the system from the ground up.
Panelists at this event will include Rev. Edward Pinkney from Benton Harbor, Michigan, a frequent contributor to the People’s Tribune, prolific speaker, and a longtime fighter for human rights and democracy. Rev. Pinkney has been a valiant fighter for the right to vote and recently appeared on Democracy Now as one of the leaders in the battle against lead contamination in Benton Harbor’s water.
Also featured will be Kathy Powers of Chicago, who became a leader of the resistance to Rahm Emmanuel’s closure of mental health clinics. She has continued to be at the forefront of community issues ever since, like safe COVID-19 school reopening, criminal justice reform, and hunger and housing.
Shauna Pandelidis of Sacramento will speak. She has been advocating reproductive justice since the early 1970s, serving as Executive Director of the Feminist Women’s Health Centers of Northern California for over 40 years. She has fought all forms of systemic injustice and has become a member of the Poor People’s Campaign and the League of Revolutionaries for a New America.
Finally, Kenneth Mejia is a candidate for Los Angeles Controller. He is a Certified Public Accountant and was born and raised in LA by parents who immigrated from the Philippines. In 2016 he founded a community service group called “We Can Make a Difference – LA” that provides essential supplies to unhoused communities and low-income families in Skid Row, Westlake, Koreatown, and Echo Park. In 2016, he also joined the LA Tenants Union to organize and fight alongside tenants experiencing immoral rent increases, unjust evictions, and uninhabitable living conditions.
All will be addressing the crisis of democracy and meeting basic human needs that we face in 2022 and what needs to be done. Please join us!
