Dear all: I am currently at Chicago, IL for one week supporting the sit-in Republic Window and Door workers, I went to visit the workers and brought some food, they're all in high spirit. As of last night (Tue 12/9) we learned that there's a tentative agreement between the union-company-Bank of America, it's a good news but we still need to push for the final agreement. see related video: _http://www.activistvideo.org/views.asp?id=506_ (http://www.activistvideo.org/views.asp?id=506) related information: _http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/bankofamerica?rk=4dA6AtSqJEicW_ (http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/bankofamerica?rk=4dA6AtSqJEicW) latest news: _http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-workers-sit-in_10dec10,0,2597497.story_ (http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-workers-sit-in_10dec10,0,2597497.story) This has been a very excited and dynamic labor struggle where many Chicago-based activists, some even from St Louis coming to supports--while there's many good, bad, ugly behind the scene struggles between workers, union, company, the Bank of America and the politicians. The workers struggle also links to me directly and deeply to me personally, last night I learned from my parents that one of my distance family member was commit suicide at Hong Kong after his business failure due to current U.S.-made financial crisis. I felt very sad and couldn't sleep overnight because lost of my family member--the victim of U.S. capitalism greed, and the cruel reality of destructive nature of the capitalism--personally as anti-globalization and anti-war activist, I do worry about my safety and future, but I believes injury to one is injury to all! In order to win a struggle, you need to take it personally, and take the ownership of the ownership of the struggle to make it happen! Maybe this is the best way to memory my family member....
