International Protest over Turkish Crackdown

GLOBAL unions have called for two days of protest -- on Friday and Saturday -- in response to state violence, and in solidarity with demonstrators in Turkey. 

If your union is holding an event as part of these days of action, please let us know using our new online form, here:
http://www.labourstart.org/2013/suggestevent.php

Your event will appear on LabourStart's home page for your country. 
For example, you can see details of the Friday demonstration in London on the home page of LabourStart for the United Kingdom, here:

Meanwhile, early this morning, our online campaign reached an important milestone: we've now sent over 20,000 messages from trade unionists in 150 countries to Prime Minister Erdogan. 

Please spread the word in your union -- let's make this an even larger campaign! Click here to send your message: http://www.labourstartcampaigns.net/show_campaign.cgi?c=1840

Thank you!
