“Rev Billy is not ordained by a traditional church, but he is a believer in the potential of anti consumerism, of using song to reach people. Barbara was ordained as one of his saints.”

Senator @BernieSanders on EHRP’s founder, Barbara Ehrenreich: “Barbara was not afraid to name names. She spelled it out, and described in great detail, the barbarity of poverty. What poverty does to people.”
