[Karen Medina]

Reminder! This is happening in about half an hour.
"The 1970 UIUC Student Strike: Lessons for our Present Struggles"
Monday, April 11, 5:30 PM
Greg Hall R. 215 (southwest corner of quad)

Eric Heim, Senior in History, will be narrating what happened in this
very same campus of ours, more than four decades ago, when the same
issues were being raised and similar battles being fought. What can
our movements learn from this not-so-well-known past? What tactics can
we emulate? What errors should we avoid?

As our brothers and sisters in SEIU fight for a fair Contract and are
on the verge of a strike... As our undocumented sisters and brothers
continue to fight for a Dream Scholarship... As we prepare for yet
another round of activities in the long fight to save public
education... As we all see how the U.S. labor giant is awakening from
a long sleep... As we all hear of people all over the planet fighting
back - and hard - to regain their futures...

Lively debate will follow, provided you attend. For more info, contact
