IWW Launches In Uganda
Friday May 04, 2012 16:24
by Weijagye Justus
The recent meeting of fellow workers in Uganda to form a Regional
Organizational Committee (ROC) was a landmark in the history of the IWW,
and the springboard for similar emerging ROCs on the African continent.
We put in unending zeal and effort to work not only as a union, but also
toward our main goal of abolishing the wage system.
As workers of the world, we exist as one people who are in need of each
other, and all of whom have the same basic needs. There is far more that
unites us than can ever divide us along cultural, nationalistic or
religious lines. Together we can create a civilization worth living in.
Before that happens we need the conscious cooperation of all workers
across the world, united in one common cause—to create a world in which
each person has free access to the benefits of civilization. A world
without frontiers or borders, social classes or leaders and a world in
which production is at last freed from the artificial shackles of profit
and used for the good of humanity. A world in which an individual
contributes according to his or her ability and takes from society
according to one’s self-determined need. Through the IWW, we must bring
awareness of this class war to our fellow workers worldwide.
Our objective is to obtain what is not currently in the possession of
our class— the earth and its natural and industrial resources. The class
war between the parasites who possess without working and the workers
who produce without possessing is the real struggle that concerns us. As
workers, our battle is to win the hearts and minds of the world’s
people. Once we unite, there will be no force that will stop us from
taking the earth into our common possession, consequently abolishing
capitalism and the wage system that turns us workers into mere
commodities for sale on the market.
The case for the abolition of capitalism must stay on our agenda until
capitalism is abolished.

"From the point of view of the defense of our society,
there only exists one danger -- that workers succeed in
speaking to each other about their condition and their
aspirations _without intermediaries_."
