The election of the most reactionary president in the history of the United States is a threat to all working people, unions, minorities and youth. Trump has announced he will round up 2 to 3 million immigrant workers and they have plans to privatize all public services and destroy organized labor. He is already appointing neo-fascists, anti-Semites and racists like Stephen K. Bannon to top positions. This is a dangerous situation for all working people in the US and around the world. Charter privatizers and union busters are also on a rampage to total destroying public education, the post office and the question is where are our unions and the labor movement?
This forum will report on the what happened in the election and what working people and the unions need to do to defend ourselves including protecting public services, stopping privatization and defending against the epidemic of racist attacks on African Americans, Latinos, Muslims, native Americans and Asians as well as attacks on women and the LGBT community.
