Solidarity Education Center & Center for Labor Renewal announce: Southern Region Solidarity School A program for all workers and activists who want to win struggles in workplaces...in communities...on the political front...and in the global economy. Thursday, sept18 - Sunday, Sept 21, 2008 The Penn Center - St. Helena, South Carolina All of America’s workers are under relentless attack No region of the country has been more oppressed then the U.S. South. Today’s labor movement is on the defensive everywhere and its historic failure to build power and worker solidarity in the South has continuing consequences today . We need new workplace and community strategies to build a sustaining movement for social and economic justice throughout our region. Unconventional schools and training models have played a role in the U. S. South providing “education for struggle,” for past generations of activists. A new generation of worker-activists need to be prepared to lead a great struggle and build solidarity throughout today’s South and beyond. The Solidarity Education Center’s regional weekend Schools are designed to bring members and leaders of worker and community organizations together to explore strategies to do just that.
