"Ms. Davis Gates recently memorialized black activist Assata Shakur who killed a New Jersey police officer in 1973 as a leader of freedom whose spirit continues to live in our struggle. But after her election to run the state union she said her goal is to show people how to practice democracy how to work across out differences how to create solidarity based on our collective needs. By solidarity she means more money for union dues"

While the more open-minded of such people might once have reluctantly acknowledged that George W.
