hey  IMCistas-

The Coalition of Immokalee Workers is launching their 2006  Truth Tour 
mobilizing against McDonald?s.  During the 2005 Taco Bell  Truth Tour, 
the CIW won all three of their demands, including a raise and  
negotiations rights, against fast food giant Taco Bell.  The CIW is  now 
demanded real rights from McDonald?s and the rest of the fast food  
industry.  For more information please see  
http://indymedia.us/en/topic/tacobelltruthtour/archive.shtml

The  2005 Truth Tour also saw a significant collaboration between over 
15 IMCs  across the country.  We produced some of the most comprehensive  
coverage of such an event and increased the visibility of the  
farmworker justice.  And many of you made that happen.  This  year the 
tour is coming to your town and we?d love your help.

I am  asking ya?ll to help again this year.  At minimum, I?d love for 
each  IMC to feature the events taking place in their town.  We can also  
use help covering those events.  And hopefully, I?d love for each IMC  
to incorporate the issues of farmworker justice and solidarity in their  
existing media projects.  If you?ve got a local radio show or a print  
project, it would be amazing to see these issues addressed there.   
Lastly, since we are on the road and in unfamiliar places if you have a  
media making space that we could utilize to produce coverage that would  
be amazing.

I hope ya?ll be willing to find time to participate in  this project.  
Please contact me if you can help or have any  questions.  Thanks!
