Activism
From the Steelworker Organization of Active Retirees website:[1]
- "Our union is a reflection of the diverse racial and ethnic groups reflecting the population of the United States. We are committed to working towards full equality and civil rights for the citizens of the U.S. and Canada and human rights around the world.
- This vision is charted in the Union's constitution and mandated by International convention resolutions and policy. The Civil and Human Rights Department's priority is to provide technical expertise in handling discrimination problems and situations; to conduct education and training seminars on civil rights and women's rights; to develop resource material; and to provide district and local union representatives with updated information on the subject of human rights.
