A cabal of Hollywood elites,
progressive groups and social activists are planning a “People’s State
of the Union” as a “public alternative” on the eve of President Donald
Trump’s first State of the Union address.
Notable participants in Monday's
scheduled event in New York City include filmmaker Michael Moore, actors
Mark Ruffalo, Alyssa Milano, Rosie Perez and Whoopi Goldberg.
They'll congregate at the Town Hall in Manhattan, the
venue where suffragists met in the 1920s. Singer Andra Day and rapper
Common will be performing the song, “Stand Up for Something,” from the
biopic film "Marshall," about the late Supreme Court Justice Thurgood
Marshall.
Tickets were still available Saturday at $47 each.
The event, coordinated by unions, organizers of the
Women’s March and Planned Parenthood, is being marketed as a celebration
of the “resistance,” closer to “the people’s point of view,” USA Today reported.
Ruffalo, an inveterate progressive and vocal critic of President Trump, told People magazine,
“I think it’s important because we have a president who has a difficult
time with the truth, who has a radical, divisive agenda, and spends an
enormous amount of time focusing on the negative and hopelessness and
despair.”
Monday’s event also will serve as a platform for the
launch of "We Stand United," the lead organizing group of the "People’s
State of the Union."
The group’s campaign director, Julia Walsh, said,
“We’re all going to work together across all different movements to make
sure that we win back Congress in 2018 and hold this president in
check.”
