Wednesday 9/19 @ 12:15p @ East Bank Mall

The Faculty Strike Support Committee is sponsoring a silent protest in solidarity with the striking AFSCME workers. We will be silent for one half hour, followed by a minute of “noise,” because we are struck speechless by the administration’s refusal to offer the workers a fair, living-wage contract and because of the continuing attacks on academic freedom and free speech that they are waging against supporters of the strike. Please join us.

Wednesday @ 4:30pm @ Strike Headquarters
University Baptist Church (at University and 13th, Dinkytown)

With the strike of 3,500 AFSCME workers entering the third week, we are at a crucial juncture in this struggle. Student and community support remain absolutely vital for helping to push this stubborn union-busting administration back to the negotiating table with a fair contract on offer.
