 The Libertarian Workers Group (LWG) was an anarchist-syndicalist affinity group

active in New York and a member of the Anarchist Communist Federation (ACF) ofthe USA and Canada. ---- But in 1981 the LWG left the ACF, as did other affinitygroups from Milwaukee, Toronto, Montreal, etc. ---- Upon withdrawal, the LWGorganized conferences with these groups. The groups in question agreed tocontinue publishing the continental (US and Canada-wide) newspaper "Strike!"("Strike!"). They also jointly participated in other activities or broadcommunity organizations such as Libertarian Aid to Latin American Workers(LALAW), publishing the magazine "No Middle Ground". Also, these groups workedtogether to support illegal labor and anarchist groups and movements in theformer USSR.In the context of these activities, the anarcho-syndicalist newspaper "Ideas andAction" appeared.LWG's activities in New York and the New Jersey area also included interventionsin the areas of hotel workers, home furnishings and students. LWG members wereamong the first to establish and act as the grassroots union Needle TradesWorkers Action Committee (NTWAC). Also, at irregular intervals, the bulletin "Onthe Line" was circulated as well as several notices of a thematic nature.In addition to workplace interventions, LWG was active in the anti-nuclear andanti-militarism movement and formed a local anarchist group as part of the SHADAlliance.The LWG also sought to reach out to African-American workers and was active inSouth Africa's anti-apartheid movementIn November 1984, the LWG, along with anarcho-syndicalists from San Francisco,West Virginia, Montreal and elsewhere, met in New York and formed the WorkersSolidarity Alliance, which continued as its newspaper, Ideas and Action'. Thisorganization became the American branch of the then anarcho-syndicalistinternational International Workers Association (IWA or AIT in Spanish), fromwhich it was later to be expelled (most of it).The Workers Solidarity Alliance is still active today and publishes the newspaper"Ideas and Action".Related Link: http://ideasandaction.info/*"Caught" from the Liberty Digital Libraryhttps://anarchism.espivblogs.net/2022/07/03/i-eleytheriaki-oma-da-ergato-n-libertarian-workers-group-kai-i-metexelixi-tis/_________________________________________A - I N F O S  N E W S  S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
