The following message from the League for Socialist Action was sent to a Caribbean Labour Solidarity meeting in Brixton on Januar Nearly 100 people attended the CLS meeting, which was it opposition to the racist Nationality Dear sisters and brothers, the League for Socialist Action -a group of revolutionary trade union and Labour Partv activists - sends our most fraternal greetings to your meeting on the Nationality Proposals. We hope it will lead to redoubling people's determination to fight the racist attacks being launched by the Tories, the party of Britain's rich white rulers What a contrast the policy of this supposedly civilised British government is to the policies of the revolutionary governments of the CaribWhat a contrast to Grenada where black working people, lea by the New Jewel Movement, are building a truly just and humane society.
What a contrast to Cuba, where the revolutionary government, since it came to bower. declared war on racism and abolished it.
What a contrast to Nicaragua where the Sandinista government is •one al a can to ensure the rgn. of Black people and of the Indian population, and abolish racism.
But the Tories defend a system based on private profit not human neces. ane cerany not on toe rights of Black people.
We can take heart from the victories of Black people and other working people in the Caribbean. From them we see that if we are determined to struggle, we are unbeatabie Through mobilising the power that Black people have, through mobilising the power of the whole labour movement, we can defeat the Nationality Proposals. The British labour movement must say "An injury to one is an injury to all" and give full support to Black rights.
Let us build the upcoming demonstration called by the Campaign Against Racist Laws into a massive show of our strength.
Let us fight together until these proposals and all other racist laws are thrown into the dustbin of history.
