DESCRIPTION:The Struggle Of Japanese Railway Workers Against Privatization/Union 
 Busting/Nuclear Power And The Threat Of Imperialist War In Asia\n\nReport 
 By Doro-Chiba International Support Committee\n\nSaturday August 15, 2015 
 4:00 PM\nRichmond Public Library\n325 Civic Center Plaza Richmond, 
 CA\n\nThe Japanese Abe government is working to crush all political 
 opposition. It is reopening NUKE plants such as the Sendai nuclear plant, 
 passing secrecy laws and also is attacking labor and all working people 
 with economic attacks and increased repression. Doro-Chiba is a militant 
 railway union based in Chiba,, Japan  that has been fighting privatization 
 of Japan rail for decades, opposing nuclear power and also linking up with 
 Korean workers including the Korean Railway Workers Union who had a 
 national strike against privatization of the Korea Rail.\nThe US government 
 and US politicians both Democrat and Republicans are pushing for 
 militarization of Japan and the elimination of clause 9 which prohibits 
 offensive wars. Despite mass opposition of the people of Japan the 
 government continues to push ahead with reaming, selling weapons to other 
 countries and towards war with China and other countries of Asia. The 
 revision of Japanese textbooks to censor the role of the sex slaves by the 
 Japanese government and military during the 2nd WW is part and parcel of 
 encouraging nationalism and a racist campaign against the people of other 
 countries in Asia.\nThis delegate of the Doro-Chiba International Support 
 Committee will report on the struggle of the railway workers, the fight 
 against nuclear power and against a new imperialist war in Asia.\nThe need 
 for US railway and transportation workers as well as all working people to 
 oppose the opening of Japan’s 48 nuclear plants, the continued attacks on 
 Japanese workers and war in Asia is critical. The working people have the 
 power to halt these growing threats.\n\nSponsored by\nTransport Workers
