About me:
Founded in 1987, JwJ's mission is to improve working people's standard of living, fight for job security, and protect workers' right to organize. We believe in long-term multi-issue coalition building, grassroots base-building and organizing, and strategic militant action as the foundation for building a grassroots movement, and we believe that by engaging a broad community of allies, we can win bigger victories. Nearly 100,000 people have signed the Jobs with Justice pledge to Be There at least five times a year for someone else’s struggle as well as their own. In more than 40 cities in 25 states across the country, we are building coalitions of labor, religious, student and community organizations that are committed to each other for the long haul. At JwJ, solidarity is a two-way street: when communities come out for unions, they can expect unions to come out for them. Our coalitions work on a broad range of issues including workers' rights, health care, immigrant rights, global justice, economic development, living wage, and more.
Who I'd like to meet:
Workers, students, community activists, people of faith, and anyone who cares about workers' rights and economic justice.

More trade unionists are murdered in Colombia than the rest of the year combined. The Free Trade Agreement must be opposed until the human rights of these workers are guaranteed.

May Day 2008
A Day of Action for Immigrant Rights
Thursday, May 1st

Pickets at the RNC and DNC offices on Capitol Hill: 12:30 pm
We will meet at the Capitol South Metro
The RNC is located at 310 1st St. SE
The DNC is located at 430 S. Capitol St. SE


Mass Rally in Malcolm X Park: 4pm
16th and Euclid Sts. NW Washington D.C.
Metro: Columbia Heights

Our Demands:

Immigration Reform with Justice and Dignity for All
Stop the Raids, Deportations, and Use of No-Match Letters
Rescind the Anti-Immigrant Resolution in Prince William County
Declare the District of Columbia a Sanctuary City for Immigrants
Establish and Support Workers Centers in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia

To call attention to these demands, we will be organizing a series of events on May 1st. We will picket the national offices of the Republican and Democratic National Committees, calling on members of both parties to recognize the basic human rights of all immigrants to this country. We will also be holding a march and rally.

With national elections underway, this is a critical time for advocates of justice for immigrant communities to raise our voices in solidarity. Raids and deportations continue to tear families apart, both across the country and within the Washington metropolitan region. We aim to challenge the climate of fear that these raids have produced and to show that the immigrant community will not be silenced. We invite all organizations committed to the struggle for social justice to join us in making this mobilization a success.

Organizing Meetings are 7 pm on Tuesdays at St. Stephen's Church: 16th and Newton Sts. Metro: Columbia Heights. All are Welcome!

Jan 29 2008 10:16 AM

Hello Friends,
There is a particular union-related and Civil Rights related issue that I have been working on with the Teamsters dealing with a company called New Era Cap Company. I am sending this bulletin out on MYSPACE for a few reasons:

1. I need your help in spreading the word about this stuff.
2. I would like for you to go and comment or post on your own MYSPACE blogs about the situation. (at bottom will be links to where the stories appear)
3. I want to get the deserved justice delivered to the workers in question as soon as possible!


New Era is the company that provides the caps to all of Major League Baseball, many college athletic programs and is a staple in Hip-Hop gear for both musicians and fans.

New Era is a privately held company based out of Buffalo, NY, has four plants; one in Buffalo and three in Alabama. In the Mobile, Alabama plant, which is our first and primary focus right now, there is a horrendous case of racism and anti-union practices taking place. Workers in Mobile reached out to the Teamsters after being fed up with working in these terrible conditions for wages that still forced them to get on food stamps. The workers overwhelmingly (111-0) voted for Teamster representation and endured a fierce and vicious anti-union campaign set forth by the company. Now the company refuses to sit down with the union to work out its first contract. Instead it fired more than 20 people who were the most active in the organizing and then stepped up its racial discrimination.

The majority of the workers in the Mobile New Era plant are black women. They are hard working people who are simply trying to maintain. One pregnant worker was told in the midst of all this that if she were to go into labor while at work, the foreman would bring her a towel and a bucket! .... yea, it is 2008, nice, huh?

So, what can you do?
