March for Our Lives: The Mobile Bushville Sets Off on Six-Week Long March 

Help Us Organize To Take Our Country Back

On opening day of the Republican National Convention, August 30th, at 4 PM,
the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign (PPEHRC) will lead the
massive, nonviolent March for Our Lives: Stop the War at Home, from the
United Nations at 45th and 1st Avenue through midtown Manhattan toward the
site of the RNC at Madison Square Garden.

The March For Our Lives touched off from Jersey City on Monday July 19, with
the launch of the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign's Mobile
"Bushville" tent city. As we march through one of the most populated
corridors in the country over the six weeks, carrying billboards saying 
"Welcome to Bushville," we are reaching thousands of people every day - with a 
message that we must take our country back because our lives depend on it.

As we go we are registering and educating voters, doing food distributions,
hosting health clinics, and gathering human rights violations,

We are the poor and homeless, unemployed and uninsured from all races. We
will march everyday until the end of August. We will march for our lives. We
will march to stop the war at home.

Please follow our route and daily photos and updates 
(www.marchforourlives.org) and help us organize to take our country back. Support the mobile 
"Bushville."
