Organize From Below! by Richard Mellor and John Reimann, laborsmilitantvoice
A Message to Young People Who Are Considering Taking a Job as a Union Staffer
We urge young activists to get involved in the unions - but with a "rank and file" perspective. Get a union job and fight to make your union what it should and can be. Or get a non-union job and start to organize among your co-workers, help to build the union on the ground floor, become rooted in the rank and file as any serious struggle against the employers will inevitably bring you in to conflict with the Union leadership whose policies demand cooperation. It is only the power of an organized membership that can challenge the failed policies of the Union leadership.------------------------------------------- posted 6:53 AM :: reference link ::
