 Los Angeles UTLA school teachers visited Japan and\nmet with hundreds of 
 Japanese teachers who are fighting against the\nmilitarization in the 
 schools and against repression of teachers who refuse\nto sing and stand 
 for the Kimigayo (emperor's nationalistic song). Many of\nthese teachers 
 will be fired this year unless they receive international\nsupport from 
 around the 
 world.\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8192232362666209686\nhttp://vpress.la.coocan.jp/nezu-english.html\nThey 
 also connected the struggle against the militarization of the schools\nin 
 Japan with the fight in the United States to stop the "poverty draft", the 
 targeted recruiting of poor\nLatino, Native, Asian and Black students to 
 fight in US wars in the Middle East.\nArlene and Gregory will report on 
 their trip and their work to build a\nmovement in the schools against 
 militarization and war.\n\nSponsored by\nLabor Video Project\nP.O. Box
