Description

Hoping to secure their rights through the union, DRUM fielded their own candidate named Don Jackson. DRUM complained about the long line of union leaders who did little for Black workers while pocketing their dues, often UAW lackeys. This issue ends with an invitation to a rally to hear Don Jackson speak on how he will end racism and exploitation of Black workers at the plant.
