“The Alton Plantation Workers Action Committee strongly condemns this assault, and we consider the attack against SEP members, who are in the forefront of the struggle for workers’ rights, as an attack on the basic democratic rights of all workers.”
Workers, students, youth, academics and the sections of the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI) have denounced the violent attack on two SEP members by pro-government thugs and demanded the culprits be punished.
