The Labour Movement

The labour movement continues to be at the forefront of social issues. In the Third World working people continue to fight for their lives against ruthless exploitation and dehumanizing authority, while in even in the most wealthy nations it is a struggle to keep the basic benefits that have been won through decades of struggle. Everywhere there is a pressure from governments, corporations and organized wealth to strip the working people of all but he basics and minimal return for a life of work. Here are some connections to build solidarity.
