Christina López and Anne Slater have a message for you: “No more singing capitalism’s blues--Sisters it’s time to fight!” The two touring feminists from Seattle will address this topic at a public event on Sunday, June 28 at 2:00pm.

Slater, the National Organizer for Radical Women (RW), says the Bread and Roses Tour will “mobilize women and their allies to make a stand against anti-abortion vigilantes, rightwing racism, devastating layoffs, and state budgets balanced on the backs of public workers, children, and the ill”

Chicana-Apache feminist López explains, “Just like the textile workers in the 1912 Lawrence Strike who, as the song says, demanded ‘a sharing of life’s glories…bread and roses!’ women today are fighting for basic needs, in addition to respect and the good things in life.”

López is a frontrunner in the battle for rights for undocumented workers, a longtime abortion clinic defender and a pacesetter in RW’s Comrades of Color Caucus. Slater is active in the Queer Ally Coalition and led a community college unionizing drive in 2007. They recently launched a grassroots action project, Sisters Organize for Survival.

You can join in the discussion on June 28, 2:00pm, at Solidarity Hall, 2170 W. Washington Blvd., in Los Angeles (off the 10 freeway at Western; on 35, 207 & 550 bus lines).
