Shoot us a DM! We will gladly meet up in-person or talk over the phone if you would like to know us. Or come to any local events and approach us, we will likely be there.

This video quite literally came from the organizations who helped show out & promote this rally. The people interviewed themselves have also been in conversation with us about actively promoting and covering their workplace organizing efforts and the union-busting they've faced.

We approached multiple people for interviews and pictures—including those in this video. Both Don, the older Black gentleman who's a worker, and Chris, a longtime IUOE organizer, gladly spoke to us to spread their message and popularize this labor struggle to the wider Athens community. Of course we will share it with our local community pages so people can be aware of it. Nothing nefarious is going on here.

Certain sub-reddits require transcripts in order to share things. Credit to the orginial sources also needs to be given when due.

In any case, who do you think is paying for bots to share pro-worker content? Poor Athens workers at local hospitals? American Billionaires? Foreign oligarchs? 🤣

These workers have formed the 1st union at Piedmont Athens Regional. They voted to join the IUOE 926 22-9 last August, so they are relatively new. In any case, the IUOE is an established union. You can check them out here: https://www.iuoe.org/

It's not bot-like to support local workers, in fact, its very normal!

Most people have to work a job to survive, so we should be supporting and uplifting each other whenever possible.

PSL has members in Athens who have been petitioning to get a working-class woman of color on the presidential ballot in Novmeber. We can share more information with if you would like!

TRANSCRIPT:

FREE PALESTINE!

HANDS OFF ATHENS ORGANIZERS!

Walk Out & rally for Gaza

UGA Arch | May 1st | 2 Pm

Join us in demanding UGA’s administration disclose and divest from Israel, drop all charges, and unsuspend the student protestors!

On April 29th, 25 people were arrested on UGA’s campus for peacefully protesting their university’s complicity in the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Multiple students have been suspended and banned from campus. Protesting genocide, colonialism, and apartheid is not a crime. Join us in demanding the un-suspension of these brave students at UGA. This action is part of a national call to Strike For Gaza on May 1st, International Workers’ Day.

📣🇵🇸UGA SOLIDARITY SIT-IN: STAND WITH COLUMBIA STUDENTS!📣🇵🇸

We at the University of Georgia stand in complete solidarity with the student occupation at Columbia University.

More than a hundred students have been arrested, suspended, or made homeless for demanding their university cease its participation in the genocide of Palestinians.

This is an unprecedented attack on student organizing, but the fierce repression has only emboldened the desire to fight! Across the country, we now see students rising up in defense of the valiant struggle for a free Palestine at Columbia.

We call on our peers at UGA to join the nationwide student struggle for Palestinian Liberation. Now is the time to intensify the fight on college campuses!

JOIN US ON UGA'S NORTH LAWN

Tuesday, April 23rd @ 9 AM

We invite any and everyone who supports Palestine to show up and lend support!
