During my phone conversations with the strike leaders and activists inside the company, they always ask me if “the people in America and the world have heard about the strike”? I tell them I and others are doing our best to spread the word… but that’s not enough…

Labor activists reading this, the Mahalla workers are asking for your solidarity… This is the biggest textile mill in the Middle East… Whatever happens in that factory could have a huge impact on the industrial struggle in the country and the rest of the region…

Any statements of solidarity from your labor unions and organizations would be very much appreciated… Please send them to me, and I’ll make sure they will reach the strikers…

United we will never be defeated…
