Mahalla Strikers to Hosni: ‘We will not back down, and will die to feed our children’
I received a batch of photos from the second day of the Mahalla Strike, courtesy of Socialist journalist Omar Said of El-Badeel.
Here’s the first one: The workers hung a banner tied to a coffin, that reads: “President of the Republic, Where are the workers’ rights? We will not back down, and will die to feed our children”.
More pix coming soon. My heart and thoughts go out to the Mahalla strikers.
