International Day of Action to denounce the human rights abuses in Oaxaca

In May of 2006, teachers in Oaxaca went on strike, demanding better wages, as well as shoes and food for children. The Governor ordered the state police to break up the strike with excessive force resulting in death. Outraged, the Popular Assembly of the People (APPO) of Oaxaca and other citizens rose up and demanded the resignation of the Governor. Over the past few months this struggle has become a general struggle for all people in Oaxaca. The Governor has responded by ordering paramilitary forces to arrest, detain and torture suspected APPO members. The Consulate continues to deny any human rights abuses in Oaxaca, even after reports by human rights watch groups like Amnesty International. Come join Oregon Oaxaca Solidarity in a two part action on Dec 22nd. From the Consulate there will be a Procession on the Max ending with Street Theater at Holladay Park at Lloyd center.

National Day of Action! Help support the 15,000 Goodyear workers on Strike!

The experienced workers at Goodyear, members of the Steelworkers Union, have been forced out on strike due to the company’s demands to gut healthcare, close factories and bring tires in from China and other low-wage countries. Retired workers at Goodyear, many of whom face illnesses and medical conditions directly related to their jobs, would soon be left without health care insurance coverage if Goodyear has its way. And now, Goodyear is using SCABS to make tires sold in America. Goodyear has abandoned American workers, retirees and their communities. Join Steelworkers, folks from other unions and our friends in the community to protest corporate greed at Goodyear Tire. For more information call JWJ 503-236-5573 or email info@jwjpdx.org
