Petition in defense of Bangladeshi garment workers detained for labor activism

Bangladeshi garment workers play a particularly important & combative role in opposing the predations of sweatshop economics. There have been gruesome crimes committed against labor organizers in Bangladesh, including mutilation & murder. This is a petition to release 11 union leaders & activists illegally detained in Dhaka.

Please take a moment to sign & share the petition. We can’t stand on the front lines with them but signing the petition is effective in letting officials know they are being watched & that the 11 activists do not stand alone.
