Community, labor and faith coalition calls for education, jobs and economic justice
NEWARK…In the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King’s call for economic justice, Newark activists and leaders are convening a march on City Hall today to call for economic justice and community empowerment. “We are building on the national movement to reinforce social institutions under attack,” said Newark Teachers Union (NTU) President Joseph Del Grosso. “We believe that the broader agenda of the attack against teachers and schools is to dismantle the public sector and degrade the standard of living for all working people.”
