Everybody’s Got A Right To Live: The Poor People’s Campaign 1968 & Now

Exhibition dates: April 18 - June 23, 2019


Described as Martin Luther King Jr.’s “last great dream,” the Poor People’s Campaign (PPC) of 1968 was an ambitious movement to make poverty in the world’s richest nation visible and to demand justice for poor Americans. The PPC struggled to define itself as a multi-axis movement while it faced political suppression from the state, ultimately derailing its reform goals and leading some to consider it a failure; however, its spirit and intention has carried on into the present day within a growing resurgence campaign seeking to call attention to the unmet demands of ‘68. 

This exhibition provides a look at some of the visual culture of the original PPC, including photographs of marches and rallies, press coverage, and a contemporary public response to a mural in Resurrection City called the ‘hunger wall,’ in addition to showcasing the efforts of the new PPC and a portfolio of Justseeds posters created in solidarity with their actions.
