Dr. West has been standing in
solidarity with working people all his life.
This week, Dr. West stood in solidarity with striking autoworkers
in New York and Michigan. At the strike at Ford Wayne Assembly Plant,
he called out President Biden for empty gestures:
“I can't stand greedy bosses. I
can't stand profit-obsessed owners that treat workers as if they are
less than human. I know the president was here yesterday with symbolic
gestures; they're empty if they don't follow through. He broke the
back of railway workers' strikes. We need more than pretty words.
You've got to follow through because we're talking about issues of
life and death. We talk about issues of dignity…It's a matter of
morality, and it's a matter of politics.” - Dr. Cornel West
The Democratic Party and Republican Party will never
deliver for workers. We need a leader who stands with workers and
prioritizes people over profits.
