Join us for an evening filled with entertainment, a silent auction, buffet-style dinner and help us honor these people who have dedicated so much to the fight for workers rights and economic justice:

International Longshore and Warehouse Union
For leading the way by shutting down the West Coast ports on May Day to demand an end to the war in Iraq and an end to the war on workers here and abroad.
Real Change & Seattle City Council Member Nick Licata
For mobilizing the community to stop sweeps of homeless encampments in Seattle and promoting negotiations between the city and community members.
Laborers Northwest Regional Organizing Coalition
For their leadership in demanding responsible development in Washington State specifically for their commitment in South Sound to the fight for living wage jobs and affordable housing for local residents.

 

Special Recognition to Stuart Townsend
For creating the film Battle in Seattle and his portrayal of Street Heat that conveyed the time, effort, trials, and triumphs of the WTO Demonstrations.
