LABOR & COMMUNITY UNITED
ORGANIZED & UNORGANIZED

IN ALL OUR COLORS,
IN ALL THE LANUAGES WE SPEAK

WHERE WE WORK & WHERE WE LIVE
WE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE

Labor and Community United is a partnership between Organized Labor and workers in the community.

LABOR sees the struggle for the rights of workers in the community as an extension of labors' struggle in the shop.

Workers in the community whether they belong to unions or not have the same concerns. If we want to win the struggle for rent control, Affordale housings, jobs, healthcare, etc. Organized Labor and the Community must unite.

Corporate America makes every effort to pit non-union workers against union workers. It makes every effort to divide the working class by pitting color against color and language against language and man against women.

CORPORATE AMERICA FEARS WORKING CLASS UNITY BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS THE ONE WEAPON WE HAVE THAT IS STRONG ENOUGH TO WIN JUSTICE FOR WORKING PEOPLE.

LABOR CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT COMMUNITY SUPPORT. THE COMMUNITY CANNOT DO IT WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF LABOR
