Moral Mondays represents a new stage of a growing movement

Latest

From the Editors
The Moral Monday movement is breaking out all over the South, from North Carolina to Georgia, from South Carolina to Florida. The common banner of the movements is “Forward Together, Not One Step Back.”  This growing movement represents a growing awareness, a “flashpoint” among the American people that there is something fundamentally and morally wrong with a government that operates in the interests of the corporations while denying access to even the basic necessities of life to the masses. People are moving beyond fighting scattered, defensive battles to a common movement that is going on the offensive to demand a just and moral society and a government that operates in the interests of the people. They are standing together and fighting, not back, but forward.
