Workers Struggle

Worker's Struggle Film Screening of Batayla!

We invite you to a screening of the documentary—Batay La—shot about our brothers and sisters in the combative and autonomous Haitian working class movement Batay Ouvriye (which also means “Workers Struggle”).Batay Ouvriye is an example of workers’ organizations building autonomous combative structures and waging struggle against capital. The political organization of the working class is more important than ever as the global pandemic rages on and capitalists increase their offensive against the working class. The workers in Batay Ouvriye are showing the world the least of what has to be done. Joining us from Haiti will be Yannick Etienne. Yannick is a Batay Ouvriye organizer who narrates the film, and she will share her perspective on organizing and struggling against capitalism/imperialism, the importance of proletarian internationalism, the need for a combative autonomous working class movement, building some badass unions and more There will also be a discussion on Proletarian Internationalism and need to for our class to organize here, in the belly of the beast, followed by a Q&amp;A session.The event is free to attend and a zoom link will be provided to RSVPs. Well also be sharing a GoFundMe link in the days to come to raise money for the workers in BO towards their organizing efforts. Donations are not required to participate but are encouraged. See ya then!
