Description:
IWW Sydney Branch Meeting Preamble to the IWW ConstitutionThe working class and the employing class
have nothing in common. There can be no peace so long as hunger and want are
found among millions of the working people and the few, who make up the
employing class, have all the good things of life.
Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the workers of the
world organize as a class, take possession of the means of production,
abolish the wage system, and live in harmony with the Earth.
We find that the centering of the management of industries into fewer and
fewer hands makes the trade unions unable to cope with the ever growing
power of the employing class. The trade unions foster a state of affairs
which allows one set of workers to be pitted against another set of workers
in the same industry, thereby helping defeat one another in wage wars.
Moreover, the trade unions aid the employing class to mislead the workers
into the belief that the working class have interests in common with their
employers.
These conditions can be changed and the interest of the working class upheld
only by an organization formed in such a way that all its members in any one
industry, or in all industries if necessary, cease work whenever a strike or
lockout is on in any department thereof, thus making an injury to one an
injury to all.
Instead of the conservative motto, "A fair day's wage for a fair day's
work," we must inscribe on our banner the revolutionary watchword,
"Abolition of the wage system."
It is the historic mission of the working class to do away with capitalism.
The army of production must be organized, not only for everyday struggle
with capitalists, but also to carry on production when capitalism shall have
been overthrown. By organizing industrially we are forming the structure of
the new society within the shell of the old.

Sometimes
a grrl needs time out from the world, a time to chat with other grrls,
have a cup of tea and take a break from the dog-eat-dog patriarchal
world outside. A Womens Autonmous Space is a space where women can be
assured of some time-out from the world of men. Hopefully we can also
get together with other women in solidarity and support of each other.
We can chat, we can strategise, we can mellow-out, or get angry! Its a
womens space, so its whatever you want!
Women and children welcome! Sorry, no chaps allowed.
The womens autonomous space is a weekly space at Jura Books from 2pm to 5pm on Sundays.

TalkShop@The Bookshop
A series
of discussion evenings where we open up all topics anarchist.
So, when's the general strike?The conservative attack on workers is at an all time high, and we face laws that will severely restrict basic freedoms as well as the right to organise, and improve our lives at work and in the community. Yet the leaders of our trade unions continue to direct our struggle into TV advertising and vague campaigns around the next election (in 2007!). How can we kickstart the union bureacracy? How do we create a grassroots movement for radical democracy and workers power? What does anarchism have to do with trade unions?
