Uniting People
Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival
A film by Petra Daher Productions

Uniting People tells the powerful story of how the Poor People’s Campaign was reborn in 2018—and how the Michigan chapter helped lead a growing national movement to confront poverty, racism, and injustice with love, truth, and direct action.

The Story

Uniting People is a powerful documentary that bridges the past and present, telling the story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision for the Poor People’s Campaign—and how it was reborn in 2018 to confront America's unfinished fight against poverty, racism, and inequality.  Led nationally by Rev. Dr. William Barber II and Dr. Liz Theoharis, the revitalized Poor People’s Campaign mobilized communities across the country for forty days of moral fusion direct action. But at the center of this movement lies the Michigan Poor People’s Campaign, where faith leaders, activists, low-wage workers, and everyday people came together to challenge the systems that have failed them for decades.
Through raw footage, historic reflection, and first-person stories, Uniting People captures how a grassroots movement in Michigan became part of a growing national force—one that’s not just remembering history but making it. In the spirit of the Civil Rights Movement, a new generation is rising to demand justice—not later, but now.

Producer/Director

“There is nothing new about poverty. What is new, however, is that we have the resources to get rid of it.”  
Dr. King, Nobel Peace Prize address, 1964


“We must rally. We must organize. And mobilize. And sit in and stand up. Not just for a day. Not just for a summer. But until all people are housed. Until all people are fed. Until all people earn a living wage. When our voting rights are protected and expanded. All debt is canceled. All air and water is clean. All people are free to thrive, not just barely survive."  Rev. Liz Theoharis
