In North Carolina, the Republican legislature’s moves to slash public services and voting rights have brought thousands into the streets in a series of “Moral Mondays” protests. The action on February 8 (below) drew close to 80,000 people, in the largest civil rights rally in the South since the 1965 Selma-to-Montgomery march. The campaign has inspired a counterpart in NYC, targeting Albany for budget and policy decisions that increase economic inequality. For more info, follow Moral Mondays NYC on Facebook and Twitter.
