Ovim zelim sa vama da podelim neke od vesti koje dobijam od prijatelja iz USA. Moze biti interesantno za sve one koji sada nisu u mogucnosti da putuju, kao i za mladje koji nisu ni imali priliku da se " po inostranstvu" mesaju sa svetom. Amerika je stereotip, a u njoj zive ljudi razlicitih politickih i etickih nazora. Odlucila sam da vam, zbog toga posaljem privatno pismo moje drage prijateljice, koja je u Bostonu organizovala manifestacije protiv bombardovanja YU, Koja je slala pakete u Sarajevo i slala novac skupljen na najrazlicitije nacine / rostilj u njenoj basti, pa bi pozvala sve svoje komsije i prijatelje i delila im materijale koje je dobijala od .. ne secam se koga:wink:
Dearest Family,
This morning I went at 7:00 to stand at one of our famous traffic circles
with anti war posters; anti war calls to legislators are by far a great
majority.
Also big here is Jobs with Justice campaign for cleaning people in Boston,
out on strike. They only have part-time jobs, $39 a day with no benefits,
mostly immigrant workers.
And then there are the Jews against the occupation of Palestinian
territories!
Know that we think about you all the time and miss you, and feel so lucky
that we know you!
Lots of love to you all, ...
U Americi progresivne organizacije rade bez zastoja

STRIKE!!! Bulletin #13: Justice for Janitors
SOLIDARITY WORKS!
Another 1,000 janitors went on strike last night as community support intensified, and negotiations with a
federal mediator broke off. The building owners and cleaning contractors just don't get it! Volunteers are
needed everyday at the strike locations below and at the Jobs With Justice office to help with mobilization.
We need decisive action by community supporters on Thursday to send the messege to the cleaning
companies and building owners...
WHATEVER IT TAKES, FOR HOWEVER LONG IT TAKES, AND ONE DAY LONGER THAN THAT!

STAND UP TO (IN)EQUITY!
A picket line is being maintained downtown at 100 Summer St., the office of Equity Properties, who has

Keep your eye on this location for future actions!

you're even remotely thinking about it, please call. OUR GOAL IS TO MOBILIZE 100 PEOPLE TO BE
ARRESTED TOMORROW. You'll be participating in an action on a scale much larger than Boston has seen
in years!

embarrass his neighbors by his anti-worker, greedy corporate policies, please, contact the Jobs With Justice office.

Solidarity with Boston Janitors Needed!
On September 30 hundreds of janitors marched through the streets as over 1,000 of Boston janitors went
on strike to demand decent wages, healthcare, and full time jobs. Another 1,000 are expected to join them
on October 1 as the strike escalates to include potentially all 11,000 janitors covered under the master
contract.
Equity Office Properties based in Chicago is the largest commercial property owner in Boston and is key to a
fair settlement. Equity is backing down from their previous support of the janitors demands and is supporting
the main hardline cleaning company UNICCO in their attempts to break the strike.
Please take a minute and let Equity properties know what you think about corporate greed
and union busting.
Call 617-314-2900 or 617-425-7584 Fax 617-314-2806

JUSTICE FOR JANITORS SOLIDARITY PLEDGE
More than 10,000 janitors in the Boston-area and throughout Massachusetts provide a valuable service. They sweep floors,
empty garbage and scrub toilets to keep our office buildings and universities clean and the workdays running smoothly. The
janitors work hard, pay taxes and make contributions to our communities. Yet, on part-time jobs with no benefits, they are
struggling to afford decent housing and pay the doctor's bills.
We stand in solidarity with janitors who are uniting to win for good jobs with decent wages and affordable health insurance.
We support the janitors and their efforts to improve the quality of life in our communities.
____ Please, send me _______ posters to post in my workplace or in local businesses.
____ I will walk picket lines and attend actions and demonstrations.
____ I will ask my coworkers and colleagues to walk picket lines and attend actions.
____ I will contribute money to the Justice for Janitors strike fund.
____ I will commit myself to an act of civil disobedience.
