The Chicago teachers’ strike is a fight back against the racist conditions (overcrowded classes, segregated schools, etc.) our children face every day. Strikes allow workers to feel the power that we have as a class to stop the bosses in their tracks. The liberal Democrats, Obama and Duncan are leading the racist attacks on students and teachers in the U.S. with their “Race to the Top”. The anti-racist fight that 26,000 Chicago school workers are waging is an inspiration to workers around the world, like the striking Lonmin miners in Marikana, South Africa.
SAME ENEMY, SAME FIGHT! WORKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!!
For better wages, working and living conditions the black mine workers have shut down the world’s third largest platinum mine. Our working class sisters and brothers in South Africa are waging a strike against the mine owners and the racist liberal African National Congress (ANC). The response of the liberal black led ANC to these workers demands was the racist police massacre of 8 miners on August 8th and 34 striking miners on August 16th.
SMASH APARTHEID EDUCATION WITH COMMUNIST REVOLUTION!!
Chicago school workers are fighting for the schools our children deserve, as workers in South Africa are fighting for the lives they deserve. The fact remains that capitalism can never provide the quality of life our class deserves. The liberals Obama, Duncan, Emmanuel & Co. just like the ANC politicians are doing the bidding of their billionaire masters. These liberals are leading the racist attacks on workers from the U.S. to South Africa. To get the lives that our class deserves we must fight to take state power away from the bosses and their puppet politicians. The working class (more than 99%) produces EVERYTHING of value in the world, yet the ruling class (less than 1%) controls it all. Under communism racism would have no place in our society. Communism, unlike capitalism, needs unity not division of our class. A communist society will utilize the potential in all workers and students to build the world the international working class deserves.
JOIN PLP!! FIGHT FOR COMMUNISM!!
