Call for strike to protest antisemitism

Call for strike to protest antisemitism

Call from the cultural division of the Professional Union (Odezwa do robtotników żydowskich) in Vilna to Jewish workers to strike for half a day to protest the rising antisemitism in Poland, whose manifestations include "violence, boycotts, the extermination of work and trade, and lack of rights for [Yiddish] and [Jewish] culture." The protest is also against "Jewish nationalist and clerical reactionism"; against fascism and capitalism; and for "a workers' and peasants' government and for socialism." Bosses are warned against "besmirching the mighty protest of the Jewish working classes in Poland with strike-breaking."
