DESCRIPTION:A Presentation “Workers’ power” is our ability to change reality. 
 From post-war West Coast longshoremen, who dictated, daily, the conditions 
 of work, to revolutionary explosions, like in France in 1968 or Hungary in 
 1956, aimed at seizing the reins of society, workers have always fought for 
 control over their lives. We do it everyday. We do it because there is no 
 alternative.  In this interactive presentation, led by members of the Bay 
 Area Branch of the Industrial Workers of the World, (IWW) we will 
 investigate the path of workers’ collective action.  \nFrom the IWW 
 Preamble at:\nhttp://www.iww.org/culture/official/preamble.shtml\n  The 
 working class and the employing class have nothing in common. There can be 
 no peace so long as hunger and want are found among millions of the working 
 people and the few, who make up the employing class, have all the good 
 things of life. \n  Instead of the conservative motto, "A fair day's wage 
 for a fair day's work," we must inscribe on our banner the revolutionary 
 watchword, "Abolition of the wage system." \n  It is the historic mission 
 of the working class to do away with capitalism.\nSee
