NY, NYC: TEACH-IN/RALLY AGAINST THE WAR
EVENTS
VENUE:
Hunter College
outside the Hunter West building
New York City, NY 10021
starts: 05/01/2008 - 12:00pm
Hear professors, students and staff speak about the truth behind five years of war and colonial occupation that are destroying Iraq and Afghanistan.
Learn more about the real history of this and other wars, and struggles for workers rights going back to the origins of “May Day,” when immigrant and U.S.-born workers joined together to fight for the eight-hour day.
Today, history is being made by workers in the United States using their power against the war: the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) has decided to shut down all 29 West Coast ports for a full 8-hour shift against the war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We will show solidarity with this exciting action of the Longshore workers, who have a long history of fighting against racism, repression and war.
And we will discuss what we can learn from this crucial event and where we go from here.
Sponsored by the Hunter chapter of PSC-CUNY. Endorsed by the Adjunct Project.
