March on Washington: Defend the Vote
The NAACP is proud to partner with Rev. Al Sharpton, the National Action Network, and the Drum Major Institute for the March on Washington: Defend the Vote, marking the 63rd anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington.
We're calling on our members, our communities, and everyone who believes in justice to join us on the National Mall. The work of 1963 is not finished.
We're marching for:
- Voting Rights: Organizing for true civic equity, ensuring equal ballot access, and expanding community-led voter education across every generation.
- Economic Dignity : Constructing a future where fair wages, equal opportunity, and sustainable livelihoods are recognized as foundational civil rights.
- Affordability: Ensuring every community has direct, unimpeded access to life's essentials from affordable college, safe housing, reliable healthcare, and nourishing food.
This isn't just about one election; it's about whether our democracy protects all of us. It's about making the promises of 1963 real, once and for all.
