There should be a branch of the US Govt that gives money to college students and union groups to use for organizing protests against the Govt to help people fight for their rights.

It would then be up to the Govt to use other money to curb these protests by using national guard and law enforcement while if necessary, compromising with the activist citizens and union groups.

Then there can be a community organizing dialogue between poor people and the powers that be

One way we can get this going is to have a tax increase on people who make more than $250,000/year that will go towards Federal funding for college student progressive protests.

What you need is money that can go to the poor from federal funds so they can organize protests to push Govt to do more for the poor

Sure, we really should have 2 departments. The one you mentioned and a second one to help with tax equality. The second department would work to assure that everyone paid to cover their share of government expenses. They would promote laws that would require every able bodied person to pay at least some taxes. We could fund it by placing a tax on the 40% that current pay no taxes and phasing the rate out as individuals pay more of their own portion of government expenses.
