No Meetup in April

Sorry for the short notice, but we will NOT be meeting this Thursday for our regularly scheduled meetup. Too many people are too busy working on the upcoming Primary Election campaign. If you would like to help with a Primary Election campaign, please contact Bailey Childers at 717-920-8470. Also, this election is when we elect local party committeepeople. If your ward or precinct doesn't have a candidate, write yourself in!

Union Event at Broad Street Market

The Coalition of Black Trade Unionists (CBTU) consists of members from seventy-seven international and national unions with more than fifty chapters across the country. The CBTU continues to build a national movement that builds our strengths and talents to bear in the unending effort to achieve economic, political and social justice for every American.

Long before the globalization caught the attention of America’s working families, CBTU was challenging the gaping disparity of wealth, power and living standards throughout the world, especially within the African continent and Caribbean countries.

We cordially invite you, as well as others whom you feel may be interested, to attend our Anti-Sweatshop Campaign event to be held April 29, 2006 at the Broad Street Market, 1233 N. 3rd Street, Harrisburg, PA, from 10am until 4pm.
