Student-labor rally shows solidarity in struggle
By

Published Apr 30, 2009 7:34 PM
Hundreds of City College of New York students and faculty supporters
walked out in protest of a $300-per-semester tuition hike and faculty cutbacks
on April 22. The CCNY protest was lively and linked the struggle for student
rights with solidarity for striking Stella D’oro workers from Bakery,
Confectionary, Tobacco Local 50 in the Bronx.
The April 22 walkout was called in the spirit of the historic 1969 Open
Admissions Strike against CCNY’s racist admissions practices.
