## Resource

Sixty-three years after the original, a new March on Washington is set for August 28, 2026 — this time to defend the vote. Led by Reverend Al Sharpton and the family of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., with major civil rights groups rallying behind, the march aims to confront threats to voting rights, especially after a Supreme Court ruling that weakened the Voting Rights Act. Echoing the spirit of the 1963 march, this event brings together faith, community, and civil rights leaders to demand that every vote counts and democracy endures.
