Fireside chat with Dr. Bernice King and Michael Tubbs at Guaranteed Income Now!

Dr. Bernice King, CEO of the King Center, sat down with Michael Tubbs who as mayor of Stockton presided over the first-ever mayor-led guaranteed income program, the Stockton Economic Empowerment Demonstration. King talks about her father's legacy of supporting a "guaranteed minimum income," and imparts lessons based on Kingian non-violent values for the maturing movement for a guaranteed income.
Guaranteed Income Now is a national convening of leaders across the growing movement for guaranteed income. This event will bring together leaders, advocates, practitioners, and researchers from across the country to hear directly from organizers working hard to bring direct cash to their communities. At the conference, participants will celebrate the proliferation of guaranteed income pilot programs across the country, discuss how direct cash programs like the Child Tax Credit impact communities, and highlight various ways that conference organizers are investing even more in efforts to support the growing guaranteed income movement.
Economic Security Project advocates for ideas that build economic power for all Americans.
We legitimize bold ideas by supporting cutting-edge research and elevating champions, win concrete policy victories for the communities that need to see change now, and provoke the conventional wisdom to shift what’s considered possible. Our team of academics, organizers, practitioners and culture makers disburse grants, run issue campaigns, develop creative interventions and research products, and convene to encourage investment and action from others.
