The two groups are asking social organizations, unions, and individuals from around the world to promote and participate in this day of action. |

"there's a starbucks at Guatanamo, if you need more reasons to protest"
This isnt a protest against Starbucks, its a picket to get workers their jobs back. As long as there is a capitalism there will be places like starbucks. Winning workers struggles is how we build towards a world without capitalism.
I see there are at least two pickets this weekend in support of workers (Friday WSM picket in Dun Laoghaire?) does this reflect a change in tactics by the anarchists? Kind of impressive.
the tactic should be to engage the public, confront power and express solidarity
(yes after we've done our homework)
got to break out of the subcultural bubble of the left
Don't forget that Choice Ireland is protesting outside the WRC on Dorset Street from 1pm so feel free to drop up to us before this Starbucks protest if you're around town.
Best wishes,
