New
Orleans after Katrina
--THE
REAL STORY
By
Blair
New
Orleans |
I just arrived back from the Occupied Territory in the West Bank of New
Orleans (Algiers, Louisiana) a couple weeks ago. I have been trying
to put this email together since. But I am incoherent and it has
taken me a long time to process anything. I was not emotionally prepared
for or aware of the degree to which a sort of inhumane `cleansing' is taking
place there... here, in our country. |

TUESDAY!Labor
Judge Attacks Unions'First AmendmentRights |
I had no way of knowing at the time, but in the early 1950's I might have
been part of one of the last legal secondary boycotts by trade unions.
.
. . The other day, an administrative judge with the National
Labor Relations Board, charged with enforcing the nation's key labor
law, ruled that union banners, lettered "Shame on Cymer," and similar
banners that carried other employers' names were illegal under
the nation's secondary boycott law. |

Workers
in the occupied factories of Buenos Aires, Argentina have a different vision:
Smash the logic, not the machines
At
Brukman, which has been producing men's suits for 50 years, it's the riot
police who smash the sewing machines and the 58 workers who risk their
lives to protect them. |
