About this event
Zoom event
For decades in the United States, there has been an epidemic of hanging noose incidents to terrorize and harass Black workers and other workers. These systemic racist attacks have not been responded to by any organized political education and action campaign in the trade unions and labor movement.
Today with the rise of a fascist government that openly wants to bring back the confederacy and end any legal actions against racism and discrimination, the issue of what’s happening and what unions should do about this is critical.
