The Black August RIDE

ABOUT BLACK AUGUST:
Commemorating BlackAugust is an important contribution to self-determination. The traditional practices of Black August include fasting, studying, and physical training. 50 years ago, on August 7, 1970, Jonathan Jackson was killed in northern California while attempting to liberate a group of Black freedom fighters known as the Soledad Brothers, of which his brother, George Jackson, was a part.

Call to Action:
The past months of the Black Lives Matter Movement have confirmed once again the only way to challenge this racist, militarized system is with the explosive power of people making demands and shutting it down.

Regardless of what happens in November our only way forward is to stay mobilized!
Demanding justice and accountability against racist killer cops!
In defense of Migrants rounded up and deported!
In solidarity with LGBTQ and Disabled people
Against endless wars, sanctions and occupations

We face the greatest capitalist crash in US history and an out of control COVID-19 pandemic.

The people must remain mobilized through the election and beyond. We will not win the change we need at the ballot box. The two candidates of the parties of the billionaires ignore the super-majority of people in the US who support improved Medicare for all, a robust Green New Deal, an end to inequality and taxation of the wealthy, an end to the never-ending wars and US imperialism. Neither party is responding to the call to stop racist militarized policing, invest in alternatives to policing while cutting police budget and democratic community control of the police. No matter who is elected the people must be mobilized in 2021 until the people’s demands are met.

We defend:
Resistance from Minneapolis to Portland and NYC to Chicago
Education workers opposing dangerous school reopening
Organizers of rent strikes and against evictions
Black Lives Matter Movement everywhere
Solidarity with all those resisting US imperialist violence
Social movements seeking peace and justice

Save the Post Office & VA!

345 W Saint Paul Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin – 11 A.M. – 12 NOON

Various labor and community organizations are joining a national day of action August 22, 2020 to save the U.S. Postal Service. There are already actions such as this informational Peoples’ Solidarity Picket in Milwaukee and also in Racine at 11 A.M. at 6th and Main. We’ll also be supporting the members of AFGE at VA facilities who are also under attack by the Trump administration.

Trump is undermining the world-class efficiency and productivity of the USPS and its workers as part of his undemocratic campaign to suppress the vote and steal the election. For example, they plan on removing 671 sorting machines across the country and have already removed dozens of blue mailboxes throughout the states. Veterans, seniors and many others are not getting their medications on time – during a pandemic!

The forced slowdown has caused mail to be lost. We must also demand that the Senate pass the $25 billion emergency Covid-19 stimulus package for the U.S. Postal Service, as well as the rest of the HEROES Act. The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 requires prompt and efficient service and access to the Post Office for all communities.

The Trump administration is also trying to bust the diverse workers unions within the USPS. We in Wisconsin know the disastrous effects of public sector union busting and won’t stand for it on the federal level. We also are in solidarity with workers at the V.A. who are facing similar attacks of union busting and privatization from the Trump administration. We are joining together because we know in unity we win!

For more information about events in Wisconsin: www.wibailoutpeople.org or facebook.com/wibailoutpeople.org. For more information on how to help save the USPS: apwu.org. The postal worker unions are also sponsoring a Nationwide Day of Action August 25: #SavethePostOffice. / For more info on the fight to oppose privatization at the V.A. and to support the union workers there: afge.org or facebook.com/afgeunion.
