In August, Labor Justice Radio members and other members of Media Mobilizing Project traveled to West Virginia for a gathering of more than 160 leaders from across the country and around the world. During our time at the Leadership School, we studied together, taught one another, and worked towards Reigniting the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Poor People's Campaign today.

At the end of the week-long school, Amendu Evans spoke to Reverend Mavuso Mbhekiseni, who is a member of the Rural Network in South Africa and a part of the Shackdwellers Movement (Abahlali baseMjondolo). Amendu also talked to Chris Caruso, who is part of the Poverty Initiative at Union Theological Seminary. This audio piece captures some of their reflections on the school.
