This week Martin Luther King and Ralph Abernathy's 1968 Poor People's Campaign was taken back up by Pastor William Barber of Greenleaf Christian Church in Goldsboro, North Carolina, and Liz Theoharis, a minister and anti-poverty campaigner from New York. People began by gathering outside the U.S. Capitol to protest economic inequality and racial injustice. After 40 days of these protests — in D.C., North Carolina, Missouri, and California — activists from around the country will converge on Washington for a mass demonstration on 23 June. These images are reproduced from ‘Jill Freedman: Resurrection City, 1968’ – documenting the culmination of the 1968 Poor People’s Campaign in Washington DC, during which 3000 people set up camp for 6 weeks in a makeshift town that was dubbed Resurrection City, and participated in daily protests. Freedman lived in the encampment for its entire 6 weeks, photographing the residents, their daily lives, their protests and their eventual eviction.
