ATTENTION ALL ACTIVISTS

*** M1 Call to Action ***

January 2002

The year 2002 will no doubt be an eventful one for workers and 
communities throughout the globe. Already workers in Argentina are 
paying the price of the renewed corporate offensive. In Colombia, this 
same offensive, led by the USA's military might, may well come to a head 
with a major confrontation now being organised against the people's 
movements. This is to say nothing of the devastation of Afghanistan and 
the plans against Palestine and Iraq.

Workers and communities in Australia are no exception. We are all too 
aware of the plans the Liberal government has to smash the unions, 
scapegoat refugees and destroy what's left of our welfare system.

We consider that a show of strength is needed on our part, especially 
here in Victoria where both the AMWU and CFMEU are under concentrated 
attack, and where we have the community momentum for a united response.

We would like to see all community organisations working together and 
organising a NO WAR MAY DAY on Wednesday May 1 this year:

NO WAR ON REFUGEES
NO WAR ON THE THIRD WORLD
NO WAR ON WORKERS & UNIONS

We would like to invite and encourage your organisation and all 
individual activists to participate in a meeting to discuss the 
possibilities of united action against the attacks on refugees, the 
Third World and our communities.


Meeting: Tuesday February 5, 6pm

Venue: Trades Hall Council, New Council Chambers
