*
By Mahtowin Munro
Stephanie Hedgecoke
As we go to press, it is still not clear whether Jeff Weise acted alone

brought the despair and impoverished living conditions of tens of
thousands of Native people in the United States to the forefront.

The war against us all <http://www.workers.org/2005/us/mumia-0407/>
Mumia Abu-Jamal

beginning of wars to come all around the world at the whim of the
neo-cons in the White House.

*In growing numbers
Youths say no to Pentagon wars
<http://www.workers.org/2005/us/resisters-0407/>
Recruiters pushed out of many schools
*
By John Catalinotto
Young people's passive resistance to the Iraq occupation is driving Army
recruiters into early retirement, depression and thoughts of suicide. In
addition, active resistance is growing at all levels, from pickets at
recruitment centers to troops refusing orders to Iraq. Individual
military resisters are becoming spokespersons and role models for other
troops.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*On to May Day* <http://www.workers.org/2005/us/may-day-0407/>
The origins of May Day are in the struggle in this country in the 1800s
for an eight-hour day, and the heroic struggle that led to Chicago's
Haymarket Square and the martyrdom of workers there. But it has its
origins in the communist movement too. And itstill celebrated around the
world.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*No draft, no way organizing builds*
<http://www.workers.org/2005/us/no-draft-0407/>
By Dustin Langley
As the illegal occupation of Iraq continues and the Bush administration
eyes new targets for its "war on terror," it is finding that it doesn't
have enough troops to fulfill its imperial ambitions. The Army and
Marine Corps are overstretched and have failed to meet their recruiting
quotas. The reserve forces have also seen a decline in enlistments, and
are quickly becoming a "broken force," according to Lt. Gen. James R.
Helmly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Invite counter-recruiters to your school!*
<http://www.workers.org/2005/us/counter-recruiters-0407/>

are available to speak to students at your campus.

*Criminal neglect in Nias*
<http://www.workers.org/2005/editorials/tsunami-0407/>
Indonesians on tiny Nias Island are suffering the brunt of another great
earthquake, an "aftershock" of the even greater one last Dec. 26 that
impelled a tsunami that killed 280,000 people in the Indian Ocean
region. This one's damage was apparently limited to Nias, as there was
no major tidal wave.
Venezuela delegation in U.S.
Diplomats build people-to-people friendship

By Berta Joubert-Ceci
Cambridge, Mass.
On March 17, a diplomatic delegation from the Bolivarian Government of
Vene zuela attended a public reception at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT). This visit to Boston and other major cities is of
crucial importance as a goodwill gesture from the Venezuelan government

campaign of the Bush administration against Venezuelan President Hugo
Chávez and to strengthen ties with other countries.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*U.S. plays the Japan card against China*
<http://www.workers.org/2005/world/japan-china-0331/>
By Sako Sefiani
Ever since World War II, U.S. imperialism has tried to present itself as
a liberator of the Asian peoples. Despite its bloody wars in Korea and
Vietnam, and its earlier seizure of the Philippines from Spain,
Washington capitalized politically on having defeated Japan, which had
become a hated colonial power in Asia.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

straits, defines extreme poverty as a household living on less than $1 a
day.

<http://www.workers.org/2005/us/wal-mart-0331/>
Imagine you are a working woman who is paid $8 per hour. You have no
health insurance for your family. This is the condition for thousands of
Wal-Mart employees. Wal-Mart is the largest employer in the U.S.
*After mass national outcry

Education, Oakland schools are not for sale. And actions this March by

Oakland's public school system.

By Deirdre Griswold

By John Parker
Los Angeles
On March 19 a car caravan rolled through the African American community
of Watts and on to Hollywood with lights on, horns honking and banners
displayed. Unlike the meaningless commercial ads commanding the
attention of people along the sidewalks, this caravan was greeted by the
South Los Angeles community with fists in the air and shouts of
approval, because it was about something real--health care and the
demand to stop sacrificing social services for the billions spent on war
in Iraq.

Don't blame China <http://www.workers.org/2005/editorials/china-0324/>*
There is a growing anti-China undercurrent in the big-business media
focusing on the increase in Chinese exports to the U.S. These increases
follow the removal of 40-year-old textile quotas by the World Trade
Organization at the end of 2004. This anti-China campaign aims to pit
workers in the U.S. against China, based upon the alleged concern over
job losses.

The year was 1921. The place was Oklahoma. And the incident--the Tulsa

happened yesterday.

Congress rejects minimum wage hike*
By Milt Neidenberg

*By Berta Joubert-Ceci
Faced with death threats to Bolivarian Republic President Hugo Chávez

*The key is solidarity*
<http://www.workers.org/2005/us/wwp-statement-0324/>
*A message to the March 19 anti-war protests from the National Committee
of Workers World Party*
Solidarity is the secret weapon of the oppressed, the exploited and the
disenfranchised. In order to turn back the ruthless drive of the
military-industrial-banking complex to extend its empire from Iraq to
Zimbabwe to Korea to Haiti, the anti-war movement must develop the
broadest solidarity--at home and internationally.
