These are not normal times and this is not a conventional book tour. Rather, this is an organizing tour, in which Dr. Liz Theoharis, Noam Sandweiss-Back, and other grassroots organizers, faith leaders, movement artists, and more will engage audiences in discussion about what it will take to build the movement to end poverty.

On April 25, United Presbyterian Church is delighted to host this book talk. There will be an opportunity to hear from the authors and other special guests. ask questions, and engage in collective dialogue about grassroots organizing in Binghamton and other communities across the country.

About "You Only Get What You’re Organized to Take: Lessons from the Movement to End Poverty": In this new book, one of the nation’s leading anti-poverty organizers and moral voices shares the largely untold story of the movement to end poverty.

We are living in a gilded age of poverty amid plenty. In one of the wealthiest countries in the world, 40 million people live below the official poverty line and another 100 million people are one emergency away from economic ruin. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In this book, Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis and her co-author, Noam Sandweiss-Back, argue it is possible to abolish poverty. But this won’t happen through the goodwill of the powerful or the charitable actions of well-meaning people alone. It will happen through a mass movement, open to all, and led by the poor themselves.
