Attorney Ben Crump delivered a powerful and impassioned message at the 2025 March on Wall Street for economic justice, famously reiterating, “Economic justice is civil rights. Economic justice is civil rights. Economic justice is civil rights.” Crump drew a powerful comparison, stating, “Worse than how they killed George Floyd… Trayvon Martin… how they unalive us economically every day in every city in every state all across America.” He proclaimed that financial freedom is key, saying, “Financial freedom helps make all of the other freedoms more than just a dream.”
Crump called for equal opportunity and access to capital, emphasizing that such economic justice is essential for building generational wealth and securing the future for Black children. His challenge was clear and direct: “We have to be willing to stand up for our Black children’s future… Are y’all ready to fight? Are y’all ready to fight?” This stirring call to action underscored his role as “Black America’s attorney general,” fighting not only for civil rights but for economic justice as a core component of that fight.
