SUMMARY:Union Organizing Across National Divides: Palestinians and Jewish 
 Israelis in the Jerusalem Bus Drivers’ Union
LOCATION:Knight Library Browsing Room\, 1501 Kincaid Street\, Eugene\, OR 
 97403
DESCRIPTION:Two leaders from a progressive Israeli labor union that organi
 zes Jewish and Palestinian workers in joint unions will visit the Univers
 ity of Oregon for a four-day visit.\n\nThe union\, "Power of the Workers\
 ," will send one Jewish and one Palestinian organizer from their union\, 
 who will talk about all of the aspects of organizing unions across those 
 lines.\n\nThey will focus in particular on their experience organizing pu
 blic transportation bus drivers in the Jerusalem area\, where occasional 
 anti-Palestinian threats or violence have been met by a series of one-day
  strikes in which Jewish and Palestinian drivers all stuck together. This
  isn't a simple kumbaya story\, but it's impressive and instructive\, and
  a little bit hopeful in a place where it's hard to find hope.\n\nThe spe
 akers will be of interest to a wide range of students — both those intere
 sted in labor/economic justice\, those interested in Isreal/Palestine\, a
 nd those interested in organizing across national/ethical/racial lines mo
 re broadly.\n\nThis event is part of International Education Month (IEM) 
 programming. View the full calendar of IEM events here: https://internati
