Counterpunch yesterday published this plea for support for Alex Svboda and Jason Friedmutter.
Revolutionary change comes about through the everyday hard work and sacrifice of people like Alex. She was out there for us that fateful day — all of us who have felt the sting of indignity at work and who believe that working people deserve better.
Let’s be there for her now. Alex and Jason need financial and moral support to have their innocence affirmed at trial. You can e-mail providenceiww@gmail.com for details on how to lend a hand.
Please lend your support as the IWW members face trial, for getting beat up while exercising their First Amendment rights.
(More broadly, Counterpunch is usually a pretty interesting read, and we recommend a weekly scroll through their archives — even though they crapped on your devoted blogger three separate times in 2004, for daring to suggest that it was unfortunate, but okay, to feel compelled to vote for Kerry if you lived in Florida.)
