Rev. Al Sharpton warned President-Election Donald Trump to “saddle up your horse” because he’s planning to spend the eight weeks leading up to Trump’s inauguration fighting any changes that could adversely impact communities of color—starting with a rally at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on January 14.
At a special edition of his Saturday gathering and radio address at the Harlem headquarters of his National Action Network, Sharpton announced his plans to march on the on the monument in Washington, D.C. just two days before the official Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday and six days before Trump’s inauguration. He urged people to put pressure on the Senate to maintain the Affordable Care Act and to push back on every proposed member of the Trump cabinet at every confirmation hearing.
“I want Trump to know that you can take Dr. King’s statue out the Oval Office, but the children of Dr. King just like we fought back and forth, we gon’ fight back now,” Sharpton said. “It’s gonna be a day of recommitment. We are not going to let you turn us around. We got eight weeks. We gonna criss-cross this country.”
And he doesn’t plan to allow Trump to roll back the achievements of President Barack Obama.
“I had to fight for the right to vote,” Sharpton said during his weekly National Action Network Saturday Action Rally in Harlem, garnering raucous applause from the audience. “I’m gonna fight to keep the right to vote. I had to fight to get a job. I’m gonn fight to keep a job. I shifted my gear, I’m ready to fight. Saddle up your horse. This gonna be a fight for the future of this country.”
