"I’d also like to point out the history of the Teamsters strike in the thirties—the general strike and the conspiracy charges that followed that—as something that we’re reliving in many ways. There were twenty[-nine] people brought up on conspiracy charges in the forties for what happened in the 1930s; these were all unionists who the federal government was trying to throw under the bus for Minneapolis becoming a union town, effectively. Again, when we see the federal government attacking labor organizers—eleven of the fifteen of us have been labor organizers; eight of us are current and very active—it’s very telling what they see as a threat, who it is they’re trying to make an example out of.
It’s people who are able to talk to other people, who are able to organize with their neighbors and coworkers and their friends and family. They are coming after us for our speech, for our power that we have together—not for any illegal acts that we did."
