Nyle Fort, an activist with the Poor People’s Campaign, was among the speakers at a New York City event designed to bring Black and immigrant communities together on issues of mass incarceration and deportation. Fort urged the crowd to “dream of a world where poverty is illegal.” The event, held at Manhattan’s Holy Rood Church, was titled “Break Down Walls and Prison Plantations: Mumia, Migrants and Movements for Liberation.”
