Practical Solidarity
An important component of our labor internationalism is an emphasis on the need to struggle for a democratic, legal and human rights framework for workers organizing.  This is why we advocate against the governmental repression of trade union activists and leaders in countries such as the Philippines, Belarus and Hong Kong. The struggles for workers’ rights, human rights and self-determination are, as they have always been, the concern of global socialist activists. Worker solidarity across borders only makes sense if built by workers and union organizers from below.
