Korean, Japanese and U.S. workers march in solidarity
Some 3,600 workers gathered in Tokyo Nov. 7 for a National
Workers' Rally, reports the Anti-war Joint Action Committee
from Japan. In addition to Japanese workers, participants
included representatives of International Longshore &
Warehouse Union Local 10 from the West Coast of the United
States, and the Korean Conference of Trade Unions.
Together they declared: "Let's change the world through the
solidarity of workers in Japan, Korea and the U.S.! Stop war
and unemployment! Down with Bush and Koizumi!"
Demonstrators also pledged to rid Japan of all Pentagon
bases and to end Japanese-U.S. military cooperation.
When they marched on the Ginza, an expensive shopping area,
passersby joined their ranks.
