A-Infos (en) US, IWW* Philadelphia Picket In Solidairty with the FAU Against Government Repression in Germany

After not responding to the Philadelphia IWW (Industrial Workers of the World) (General 
Membership Branch) GMB’s Request for a delegation, the Branch has decided to have a picket 
at the German Consulate 1600 JOHN F. KENNEDY BL. This Friday January 29th 12:00pm. This is 
a protest on behalf of the FAU (free workers union) in Germany, an anarcho-syndicalist 
union under threat from both the employers of Babylon Cinema, the psudo-stalinist “Left 
Party” and the mainstream leftist http://Ver.di union in Berlin (part of the state-backed 
DGB umbrella union.) They have lobbied the Berlin City Government to strip the FAU of its 
rights as a labor union and have been threading its members with fines and imprisonment. 
"From FAU members and supporters at a demonstration in Berlin: ---- Dear Fellow Workers 
from Across the Globe, The FAU decided to call for a global day of protest on January 29. 
We would be glad, if you organize something in order to express your solidarity. We would 
also appreciate the information to be spread out as widely as possible. For any questions 
and comments please contact soli-faub@fau.org.

in solidarity
