AFL-CIO Offers Feeble 'Civil Disobedience' To Blunt NLRB's Attack on Worker Rights - LaborTalk By Harry Kelber
The key demonstration was in Washington, D.C., with the media alerted that there would be 'civil disobedience' action by the protesters. Here is what actually happened, as confirmed by the AFL-CIO's Media Outreach Specialist, Steve Smith:
There were about 1,000 participants, who were addressed by eight or nine speakers during the noon-hour demonstration that lasted two hours. The 'civil disobedience' action consisted of about ten leaders, linking their arms and standing in front of the NLRB building to block the entrance for about 15 minutes. That was it.------------------------------------------- posted 8:23 AM :: reference link ::
