EEOC EXPANDS IMMIGRANT RIGHTS PARTNERSHIP TO INCLUDE OSHA, DOJ AND LATIN AMERICAN CONSULATES
'Justice and Equality in the Workplace' Program Enters Phase II WASHINGTON - Cari M. Dominguez, Chair of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), announced the expansion of the Justice and Equality in the Workplace program, a highly successful public-private sector partnership to protect the employment rights of Latino immigrants. The initiative, created in July 2001 by the EEOC's Houston District Office, now enters Phase II with the participation of two more federal agencies and several Latin American consulates. The primary focus of the program is to educate and inform both immigrant employees and employers of their rights and obligations in the workplace. The newest members of the partnership are the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices, the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL) Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Consulates of Guatemala, El Salvador and Columbia (which represent nearly one million Latinos in the Houston area). Existing partners include the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF), the Mexican Consulate, Houston Mayor Lee Brown's office, the Houston Catholic Diocese, and DOL's Wage and Hour Division.

    Few social issues have rivaled the emphasis that the AFT has placed on the fight for civil rights. From its early years, the AFT was dedicated to equality in education and equality in representation. Before its second convention, the new AFT had already chartered the Armstrong-Dunbar High School teachers' local in Washington, D.C.a group of black high school teachers that the union's executive council "were glad to welcome into the organization," noted the AFT headquarters newsletter. AFT conventions as early as 1928 passed resolutions to call attention to the need for more black history in schools and for the equalization of salaries between black and white teachers. And 10 years later, the 1938 AFT convention, which was planned for a Cincinnati hotel, was moved to a new location because blacks would have been forced to use freight elevators in the hotel. One of the earliest unions to condemn segregation, the AFT stopped chartering segregated locals in 1948 and later formalized that action through a constitutional amendment. The federation also willingly accepted the loss of thousands of members in 1957 when it expelled its remaining segregated locals in the South.

Civil Rights Project seeks to invigorate integration debate
By Ken Gewertz
Gazette Staff
One hundred years ago, a young African-American scholar and activist named William Edward Burghardt Du Bois published a volume of essays titled "The Souls of Black Folk," in which he made the assertion, "The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line, - the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea." History has proven the validity of his prediction. Du Bois' "color-line" has shifted and changed as wars, revolutions, migrations, and social movements have swept across many of the world's societies, but few would deny that color and race remain volatile issues at the dawn of the 21st century. The centennial of Du Bois' seminal work provides a significant milestone from which to assess our progress in resolving race-based problems as well as to look ahead at the future of race relations and racial integration. United States judicial history adds its own milestone in the form of the epoch-making Brown v. the Board of Education decision (May 17, 1954), whose 50th anniversary occurs next year.

BACK TO MAIN ONLINE BOOKSTORE HOW TO ORDER Latin America: Empowering civil society Porto Alegre, Brazil, 31 Jan 2002 (IPS/Gustavo Gonzalez) - Grassroots activists and members of civil society must be empowered to assert their economic, social and cultural rights in the context of a globalized world, say many of the Latin American organisations participating in the second World Social Forum in this southern Brazilian city through 5 February. Latin America, and particularly host-country Brazil, is playing a leading role in this second annual gathering of independent and non-governmental entities, an event born in January 2001 as a counterweight to the World Economic Forum, a yearly meeting in which the world’s most powerful politicians and business executives set the world economic agenda. At the first World Social Forum, 18,000 people from 117 countries participated, including delegates from non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and participants in the Youth Camp and the Indigenous Nations Camp. This year, more than 50,000 people are converging on Porto Alegre, convened under the motto, “another world is possible.”

Latin American Civil Society:
Non-Governmental Organizations and Democracy
By Douglas Chalmers
Columbia University
Douglas Chalmers:
We often think in looking at new democracies in Latin America that what's necessary is to set up an election and get the Congress running. In a country like Mexico, that's very important, but it's really not enough. You have to look at nonelected bodies, as they may be called, at various kinds of organizations and practices that really regulate and that organize all the other kinds of activities that are going on beyond the election itself. The elections are very brief. They only register votes. They're extremely important, but they only register the will of the people or the interests of the people at one timein the Mexican case, once every six years. Fathom: So it is not enough just to look at how the elected body is functioning? Chalmers: There are demands constantly emerging throughout the system. The Congress itself, of course, is there all the time in order to respond to these demands. And that's very important and necessary, and much better than a military regime or an authoritarian regime. But it may be 300, 400 people who are there whose skills probably relate mostly to being effective politicians in a local town or something of the sort. In order to understand how policies relating to social security, to welfare, to international trade, to all the kinds of things that a modern government must deal with, you have to see and understand how all these other demands are processed, and it requires a much richer and much greater variety of organizations and structures. And if those aren't working, then the democracy doesn't work. If the Congress is running nicely and the elections are held, but the Congress is not paying attention to all the diverse interests that are in the society, then it's not democraticeven though it may look like it is, formally.

Latin America, Politics and Economic Depression
Democracy, Fascism and Repression in South America
Uruguay was a nation proud of being world champions at soccer. Twice they had won the gold medals in soccer at the Olympics. And Uruguay was unique in other ways. It was the only state in South America that recognized the Soviet Union. Uruguay was a constitutional democracy led by intellectuals from the professional classes. They gave the country national insurance, old age benefits, the eight-hour day and worker's compensation. Some public utilities had been nationalized. To the displeasure of the Church they legalized divorce, and the government had ended the Church's monopoly in education. With the tensions of the depression, Uruguay's neighbors, Brazil and Argentina, feared uprisings among their own people, and viewing Uruguay's relations with the Soviet Union they accused Uruguay of serving as the focus of Communist infestations that threatened their nation. With the world depression the collapse in demand from outside the country for wool and other products brought economic depression to Uruguay. Uruguay's president since 1931, Gabriel Terra, dissolved Congress in 1933 and began ruling by decree, temporarily disrupting Uruguay's democracy.
