UFCW Local 1442's Strike Force and the National Lawyers Guild are planning a mass picket line and rally Wednesday night, February 11th, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Vons at 710 Broadway (at Lincoln and Broadway) in Santa Monica.
They specifically want a lot of people from community groups to come with their own signs, banners, noisemakers etc., to demonstrate the enormous support this strike has from the public. The last few rallies have had hundreds of people and a lot of press has been there eager to talk to strike supporters about why we support the battle for healthcare and decent wages.
Once again, please bring video cameras and still cameras if you have them-and be sure to post the best of your pictures on the local strike websites. La.indymedia.org and geocities.com/backlassoweb are updating their pictures regularly and they are pretty inspiring. These are the records of what is one of the most important labor battles in U.S. history.
Rally Specifics
When: Wednesday, February 11th, 6-9pm Where: Vons at 710 Broadway (at Lincoln and Broadway) Who: All Strike Supporters, you families, and your friends
