Scott Wallace said… I'd like to invite you all to check out the Workers' International Industrial Union, www.wiiu.org. It is a radical union that existed between the years of 1908 and 1924 in the US, Canada, England, Scotland, Australia, and New Zeland.
Some of us recently reorganized this union, because we believe it is based on principles that avoid the mistakes made both by class collaborationist unions, and the two main tendencies in "socialist" practice until now, namely reformist social democracy, and bureaucratic state despotism. Though the WIIU consists of a relative handful of people at this point, we see it as the missing piece which has been lacking in both the socialist and union movements. We see it as a worthwhile project because it represents a set of principles we can hold up to other unions and to various socialist groupings. We hope that revolutionary industrial unionism can become the glue that brings these diverse forces together and provides a common focus for their struggles.
I'm also including a link to an article on our website entitled, " Mideast to Midwest, One World, One Pain"
