Michael Moore Coming to The Bronx Tonight For Bernie Sanders Event

Activist documentary filmmaker Michael Moore will be stumping for Bernie Sanders today starting at 6:15PM at Green Pastures Baptist Church in the Soundview neighborhood of The Bronx.

Tonight’s event is an effort to unite people of color behind Democratic presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders. His campaign has been criticized for lack of representation of Blacks and Latinos but clearly that hasn’t been the case in New York as we’ve seen a wide rainbow coalition of people joining this campaign.

OFFICIAL EVENT CLICK HERE TO RSVP

People of color are one of the most underrepresented groups across the country, and we are leading the nation in lowest voter turnout rates—this HAS TO STOP!

We invite you to come out and join the members of the National Latino Outreach Team for the Bernie Sanders campaign and call people around New York. We have less than 1 week left until the April 19th New York primary, and now more than ever, we need to unite and grow our #PoliticalRevolution here in New York.

Join us and find out how you can get involved and be part of this much needed effort.
