“MAKING CONTACT” RADIO SHOW ON RITE AID AND THE
EMPLOYEE FREE CHOICE ACT
5:30pm, WMUA 91.1 FM. With
only 12% of American workers in unions (down
from a third in the 1950s), passing the
Employee Free Choice Act is one of Labor's number top goals. Weak penalties and
lax enforcement of labor laws have allowed employers to brazenly use illegal union-busting
tactics to intimidate workers. And with legal tactics it is possible for
employers to delay union elections long enough to stop workers from organizing
altogether. In this special collaboration with Public Eye magazine's Abby
Scher, the radio show "Making Contact" tracks the calculated
misinformation of business groups trying to stop labor law reform and hears
from workers like Angel Warner, a Rite Aid warehouse worker from California,
who know about employers' illegal tactics against workers first hand. Info: http://www.radioproject.org/listen/usaschedule.html.

2-6pm,
327 Russell St (Route 9), Hadley. Shall we bring the nationwide Whole Foods
boycott to this event? Hit Reply with
your answer.
Whole
Foods CEO John Mackey is opposed to real health care reform. He doesn't believe
health care should be a human right, and wants even less regulation for the
insurance industry. But he is not a hypocrite. He forces his own workers' to
accept this vision of health care reform:
Whole
Foods workers and their children were forced to enroll in subsidized public
health insurance plans for uninsured families in Massachusetts last year,
costing tax-payers almost $1.7 million. Whole Foods doesn't pay for health
benefits for part-time employees. Whole Foods full-time employees are forced
into high-deductible insurance plans that shift the costs of health care from
the company to the worker.
There’s
more about Mackey at http://www.motherjones.com/print/22757.
He has contributed money to Tom DeLay's campaigns and legal defense fund. He
has compared the prospect of having unions at his stores to "having
herpes." One of his "six strategic goals for Whole Foods Market to
achieve by 2013" is to remain "100% union-free." Again, he makes
his employees live with his beliefs, quoting Mother Jones:
Shortly before the
inauguration of President Barack Obama, the manager of a Whole Foods grocery
store in the San Francisco Bay Area gathered his employees in a conference room
for a chat about labor organizing. "This is not a union-bashing thing
whatsoever," the manager began, adding, however, that he'd called the meeting
because Whole Foods believed Obama would sign the Employee Free Choice Act,
legislation intended to ease unionization that was opposed by the company's
lobbyists. According to a tape of the meeting obtained by Mother Jones,
the manager went on to imply that joining a union would lead to reprisals:
"It's interesting to note that once you become represented by the
union," he said, "basically everything, every benefit you have, is
kind of thrown out the window, and you renegotiate a contract." …
labor law bars employers from threatening to strip benefits from workers in
retaliation for unionizing.

TOM JURAVICH CONCERT
7:30pm (pot luck supper at 6pm), Echo Lake Concert Series, Town
Hall, 9 Montague Rd, Leverett. Admission: $8-$10. The son of a factory worker, Tom Juravich worked on the line as a
young man. Growing up in upstate New York, he played in his first band, The
Strikers, at 13. He began singing professionally about work and labor back in
the early 1980s, in the middle of the first wave of plant closings in the US.
His first album, Rising Again was sponsored by the United Auto Workers
in 1981. He went on to record A World to Win. His album Out of
Darkness: The Mine Workers Story became the soundtrack for a film about the
coal-miners’ union. According to the film’s producer, Academy-award
winner Barbara Kopple, “Tom Juravich has put together an album that stirs
the soul and shakes the body. A wonderful soundtrack for any
struggle…that deals with the human condition." Always captivated by workers’
stories, Tom turned to them for the heart of his recently released album, Altar
of the Bottom Line. Tom says, “We tend to think that labor songs as
coming out of the Great Depression and industrial work during the 1930s and
1940s. But after listening to people talk about what they are facing today on
the job, I just had to go write and sing about it.” For all their
different experiences, workers share much in common. So it’s fitting that
Altar was sponsored by 17 diverse unions, including a number of
international unions and several state union federations and coalitions
“There hasn’t been a union support for a cultural project like this
in a long time,” he says. Info: 548-9394, diacrowe@yahoo.com.
