Boot Riley, film maker, musician and activist spoke out in solidarity with the Crockett 10 who have been attacked and face charges for supporting the ILWU Local 6 C&H strike in Crockett, California.
The Superior Court in Richmond, California was holding an arraignment for the workers including felony charges but the Contra Costa District Attorney Diana Becton is holding off pressing the charges but is stalling on formally dropping any charges.
The C & H sugar refinery is owned by ASR and the Fangul family from Cuba who have a US monopoly on sugar and also have a record of slave labor conditions for cane workers in Cuba, Dominican Republic,
Haiti and the Philippines. They are also have contributed tens of millions to Trump who they live next to in
Florida. After making contributions to Trump he removed restrictions on the importation of sugar cane from
the Dominican Republic which had been blocked because of the labor conditions for the Haitians and
Dominican plantations that the Fangul family owns and controls.
