SUMMARY:Bi-national U.S.-Mexico Labor Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 17th at 2 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA delegation of labor unionists and activists from across Mexico will be joining with labor unionists and community activists from San Diego. \nThe purpose of this historic bi-national gathering is to discuss how to build cross-border solidarity and to coordinate a plan of action to resist the policies of Trump and their impact on both sides of the border. \nThese include the defense of immigrants and international workers\, opposition to the border wall and further militarization\, opposition to the North American Free Trade Agreement and further privatization\, defense of union rights and more. \nJoin us as we launch a bi-national labor coalition to plan and coordinate protests and other actions to oppose the attacks on immigrants and labor\, and to create a campaign for cross-border labor solidarity to counter the racism\, xenophobia\, and chauvinism of Trump and the Right. \nParticipants will include union activists from various regions in Mexico and southern California.\nSaturday\, June 17th at 2pm

SUMMARY:San Diego Progressive Labor Summit 2018
DESCRIPTION:The Progressive Labor Summit is a one-day event\, bringing together members of the San Diego Labor community with left-of-center activists and leaders to build stronger understanding\, knowledge\, skills\, and partnerships in tackling the broader social challenges we are facing today. \nWithin the context of the current political climate\, it is more important than ever that we are able to build strong\, authentic\, non-transactional relationships that allow us to move forward together in solidarity\, as we strive towards greater justice for the communities we serve and represent. \nWhile many of us have collaborated and interacted tangentially – and are even members of both organized Labor and the Democratic Party – the new political landscape requires us to be more intentional and strategic than ever in order to create the changes we seek. \nThis second annual summit will build on the work begun last year\, to help us strengthen our foundation for that work. \nBoxed Lunch provided.

SUMMARY:Working Peoples Day of Action - This Saturday\, February 24th
DESCRIPTION:Working People’s Day of Action: February 24 from 3:30-5 p.m. at Convention Center Park\n \n  \nFebruary 19\, 2018 by Jim Miller \nThis coming Saturday\, thousands of workers\, along with their families\, friends\, and allies in the community\, will gather in San Diego to stand up for the rights of working Americans in the face of the impending Janus vs AFSCME decision by the Supreme Court that aims further rig the system against us.  Against this assault\, we will continue to insist on our right to form strong unions\, raise our collective voice\, and fight for equitable pay\, affordable health care\, civil rights\, strong communities\, and quality public education for all. \nAs public sector unions confront the threat of Janus\, it is important to remember that fifty years ago Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. went to Memphis to support striking city sanitation workers.  By the time of his assassination\, King had come to see that it was impossible to fight for civil rights without including economic rights.  The battle for racial equality was inextricably linked to the fight for economic opportunity. \nWhen dealing with the issue of poverty\, King observed that\, “We are called upon to help the discouraged beggars in life’s marketplace.  But one day we must come to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.”  For Dr. King\, this meant looking at the entire society and asking questions about “the economic system [and] the broader distribution of wealth.”   It meant thinking about “the restructuring of the whole of American society.” \nOf course\, King knew that the labor movement was the single most important force that working people had to contest economic injustice.  That’s why he went to Memphis and why he gave his life struggling for justice for the sanitation workers. \nUnions are essentially working people standing together to form collective power in the workplace and in the political arena.  Historically\, unions have been the only significant institutions representing the rights of working people in America.  Before unions\, workers had virtually no rights in the workplace and for many years of our early history\, non-property-owning men could not even vote.  Thus\, the history of the union movement is the history of working Americans getting together to establish some basic economic and political rights and to have a voice in American society. \nIn an era of intensifying economic inequality\, we forget this history at our peril. \nAs Doug Henwood notes in his review of Thomas Piketty’s seminal new study\, Capital in the Twenty-First Century: “The core message of this enormous and enormously important book can be delivered in a few lines: Left to its own devices\, wealth inevitably tends to concentrate in capitalist economies. There is no ‘natural’ mechanism inherent in the structure of such economies for inhibiting\, much less reversing\, that tendency. Only crises like war and depression\, or political interventions like taxation (which\, to the upper classes\, would be a crisis)\, can do the trick. And Thomas Piketty has two centuries of data to prove his point.” \nThe only political mechanism American workers have ever had to address this is the labor movement and that is why most Americans should care about the fate of the labor movement\, whether they are in a union or not. \nSo come on out this Saturday and stand with the American labor movement.  The new Robber Barons of the Trump era can only prevail if we let them divide us.  United\, we can fight back and win a better future.
