Dear Friends and Fellow Workers,

We are hosting a labor organizer training weekend here in Binghamton on
February 27th-28th, and you are invited to join us.

This is an intensive two day training that includes an introduction to
what a union is, what makes the IWW unique, stages of a campaign, the
nuts and bolts of how to organize your workplace, labor law in a
nutshell, and more. This training will also introduce you to the IWW's
style of unionism (solidarity unionism), a model of organizing that
relies on worker-organizers, direct action, fighting for better
conditions, and worker solidarity. We will be bringing in two
experienced IWW organizers, one from the Starbucks Workers Union and one
from the Education Workers Industrial Union, to conduct the training.

The training will be from 9AM to 5PM on Saturday the 27th and from 10am
to 4pm on Sunday the 28th. In order to prepare materials and such, we
are asking that people register beforehand here
http://tinyurl.com/yh5b869 . We're asking attendees for a $5
registration fee to help cover food and transportation costs, but no one
will be turned away for lack of funds. Lunch is included.

For more information or if you have questions about participating in the
training, please call Joe at (607) 651-7705 or email
