The Class Struggle Continues….On The First Anniversary Of the Murderous Bangladesh Factory Collapse Fire-Solidarity Event In Boston 

 

Some events, some occurrences in the class struggle, should be etched deeply into the minds of every leftist pro-working militant and supporter. The events around the 2013 Bangladesh factory collapse like around the infamous Triangle Factory fire of 1913 in America cry out for vengeance. If the capitalists involved in making policy at either site were no less blood-thirsty for profits than the rest of their class they nevertheless stand in the forefront for that motive which had wreaked more lives than can be counted in capitalism’s now several hundred year tenure as the major mode of production on this good green earth. Time to put such a system into the dustbin of history-for good.

 One year has passed since the infamous Rana Plaza building collapse in Savar, Bangladesh, in which over 1100 workers were killed. No significant change in labor rights, factory safety, or social attitudes has taken place since then. Factory owners, government officials and retailers in the west have fast returned to “business-as-usual” amnesia.
