TriadCity Message of the Day
2009-06-22

Harvesting of grapes in the Xanadu Vineyards is underway, on the grounds of the Xanadu Winery in the NorthWest Third.

The harvesters performing this labor are professional farmworkers belonging to the TriadCity Farmworkers' Union (TCFW), Local #1. You'll find them in blue overalls, working in the fields, sleeping in their collective home nearby the winery, and, on days off, participating in the City's rich cultural environment.

We encourage you to note very carefully the power of working class solidarity in the NorthWest Third. Organized workers are a considerable population there. You'll find them to be highly committed to group solidarity. In their view, an injury to one is an injury to all. If you attack, steal from, or perform malopathy on any individual, the others will attack you on sight - permanently, for the rest of your life, wherever they encounter you, anywhere in the city. We warned ya.

This powerful sense of unity is shared by all organized workers in the Third. To ignore or dishonor it is to risk significant consequences.

Unionized workers are easy to identify in NorthWest. They wear a characteristic tattoo on one cheek: a circle of people with linked arms. As the City grows, you'll find more and more of them throughout the Third, and sometimes in other areas of the City as well.

Workers of the world, unite!
