Dear Friends,
We support the many school walkouts that will take place on May 1, the international workers holiday. All school workers should back the students with the courage to take direct action. We also support the immigrant-workers rights movement that seeks, once again, to demonstrate its potential on this great day.
In that vein, here is a link prepared by the Lawyers Guild on the rights of students, especially as related to walkouts.

And here is a fine, old, piece by Alexander Trachtenberg on Mayday
Long time Rouge Forum readers will note that we are not linking to our own traditional Mayday flyer, nor have we sent out a Rouge Forum update for two weeks.
That is because our service provider, Earthlink, has had our web site shut down, illegally, since April 1. We have paid all our bills but Earthlink simply refuses to restore the web site.
At least two officials at Earthlink seem to have responsibility for this, a Mr Lunsford at , lunsford.support@corp.earthlink.net , and Bil Quince, Mr Lunsford’s underling at bquince@corp.earthlink.net
Maybe if, say, ten percent of the 4400 people on our email list send them a note, they will wake up and act right. All you need to do is say, “Turn on Richard Gibson’s (rgibson@pipeline.com) web site NOW.”
Thanks to Gil, Tommie, Bill B, Amber, Wayne, Susan H and O, Connie Lane, Doug, Marsha, Sally, Sandy, Nancy, and Nancy P.
We hope to be restored to life, fully, next week.
All the best, r
