Whether you celebrate
Christmas or not, here’s something you can do to mark the day.
As I write this hundreds of
riot police have surrounded the temple where the leaders of the Korean rail
workers union have been seeking refuge. By taking just a few seconds out
of your holiday you can tell the Korean government that, even today, the world
is watching. And you can tell tens of thousands of workers that you
agree: the right to strike is a basic human right.
