Mandate hosts celebration of Dunnes Stores Anti-Apartheid Strike 40 years on
Wednesday 31 July 2024Mandate Trade Union held an amazing event to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Dunnes Stores Anti-Apartheid Strike on the 19th July.
Vincent Browne hosted a discussion with the original strikers, while Omar Barghouti spoke about the importance of boycotts while Palestine continues to face a genocide.
There were messages of support from far and wide which we will share later today too.
At a time of increased racism and growth of the far-right here at home, and an extreme apartheid regime in Palestine, now more than ever we must learn from these heroic workers and the courageous stance they took 40 years ago.
