If anyone had any doubts that the movement for justice in Palestine is growing by leaps and bounds, in numbers, breadth, and determination, check out what happened this morning in Oakland, CA:
• somewhere between 700 and 1,000 demonstrators from all over the San Francisco Bay Area made their way at 5:30 on a Sunday morning deep into the Port of Oakland to stage a spirited community-labor picket line in front of a berth where an Israeli freighter, the Zim Shenzhen, was due to dock;"
This is great news, a coup de foudre. Gratifying to see my union's banners well represented.
ReplyDeleteYou mean there are representatives of British unions participating in that action?
ReplyDeleteAn international union, the Industrial Workers of the World. USA, Canada, UK, Germany, Austria. Australia too, but it seems the law makes it impossible for it to work there. Still a few people keep it alive and get the word out. A global union to resist global exploitation.
