DESCRIPTION:LESSONS OF THE NORTHWEST AIRLINES STRIKE \n\nPresentations, Video & 
 Discussion - With AMWA Local 33 President Ted Ludwig and Filmmakers Dawn 
 Mikkelson and Melissa Koch\n \nThursday, August 30 at 7:00 PM\nNew College 
 Cultural Center, 766 Valencia St, SF \n \nIn a long and bitter recent 
 airline strike, thousands of mechanics who were members of AMFA (Aircraft 
 Mechanics Fraternal Association) Local 33 struck against Northwest 
 Airlines. The strike challenged outsourcing and changes in work conditions 
 and benefits. \n \nThis forum will include a presentation by AMFA Local 33 
 president Ted Ludwig, who will talk about lessons of the strike and where 
 the struggle is today, and a video on the strike produced by the Labor 
 Video Project. In addition, filmmakers Dawn Mikkelson and Melissa Koch of 
 Emergence Pictures, who are producing a full length documentary about the 
 strike called The Red Tail, will screen part of their film. They will be 
 returning from a trip to Asia, where they have been filming material on how 
 outsourcing is affecting the airline workers in the United States and 
 throughout the world. \n\n$5.00 Donation Requested (no one turned away for 
 lack of funds). \n \nSponsored by the Labor Video Project and New College 
 Center for Education and Social Action. \n\nFor more information contact: 
 Labor Video Project, P.O. Box 720027, San Francisco, CA 94172;
