Al Sharpton: ‘One Thing You Have to Give the Right Wing,’ They Are Organizing and Galvanizing Their Base; ‘We Must Do the Same’
RUSH EXCERPT:
SHARPTON: "You have to be persistent and consistent. You can’t let 1st March do it. You must say the March is only to galvanize. Now you have to organize door to door. You have to use social media. You have to let them understand what’s at stake. As I said in the speech, voting rights is basically been suspended by the Supreme Court decision. The Affordable Care Act has expired, and we’re not doing anything to bring that back. And we need to deal with the whole issue of our enfranchisement in the areas of diaz where they are now really saying, you can’t even count how diverse a corporate boardroom is, or corporate employment or government agency. Those are the things that we must measure it by. Those are the things that we must continue to be relentless. One thing you have to give the right-wing. They are there every day, all day. Social media, organizing, galvanizing their base. And we must do the same. They have big rallies, but they also go to work. We had a big rally yesterday."
