In the wealthiest society in human history, 140 million people - nearly half of the population - live in poverty or are struggling to make ends meet, and cannot afford a $400 emergency. Hence, the need for a revival of Dr. King's Poor People's Campaign: a national grassroots movement to end poverty, racism, war and ecological devastation. We Cried Power is an intimate account of a "season of resistance" told through the eyes of the mothers, veterans, preachers, and students who are the voices and founding members of this new "fusion" movement. The film bears witness to the profound process by which those without power decide not to accept their powerlessness.
