Allentown, PA: We Are One Press Event, Lunch, and Worksite Drop at T-Mobile
April 4, 2011 11:30AM to 03:30PM
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was standing with sanitation workers demanding their dream of a better life. Today, the right to bargain collectively for a voice at work and a middle-class life are under attack as never before.
Join in this National Call to Action on April 4 and stand with other civil and human rights activists, union members and supporters, religious leaders, and community organizations -- as we stand together across the country against a political agenda that is attacking working families, their human rights, and their dignity. This press event is sponsored by the Communications Workers of America.
After the press event, we will have lunch, then hand bill at the T-Mobile call center at 794 Roble Road in Allentown. All are welcome to join us in support of the T-Mobile workers in the Lehigh Valley who are fighting for the rights that Dr. King gave his life for.
The struggle of the sanitation workers in Memphis, Tennessee was about respect and has similarities to the struggle that T-Mobile workers are involved in now in the Lehigh Valley. We are joining together for our common dreams.

Allentown, PA: We Are One Press Event, Lunch, and Worksite Drop at T-Mobile
April 4, 2011 11:30AM to 03:30PM
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was standing with sanitation workers demanding their dream of a better life. Today, the right to bargain collectively for a voice at work and a middle-class life are under attack as never before.
Join in this National Call to Action on April 4 and stand with other civil and human rights activists, union members and supporters, religious leaders, and community organizations -- as we stand together across the country against a political agenda that is attacking working families, their human rights, and their dignity. This press event is sponsored by the Communications Workers of America.
After the press event, we will have lunch, then hand bill at the T-Mobile call center at 794 Roble Road in Allentown. All are welcome to join us in support of the T-Mobile workers in the Lehigh Valley who are fighting for the rights that Dr. King gave his life for.
The struggle of the sanitation workers in Memphis, Tennessee was about respect and has similarities to the struggle that T-Mobile workers are involved in now in the Lehigh Valley. We are joining together for our common dreams.
