Sex workers are taking part in the International Women’s Strike (IWS), with women in over 40 countries participating. Read the A declaration from English Collective of Prostitutes and Empower Foundation, endorsed by the Global Network of Sex Work Projects (NSWP.ORG) issued which puts forth some of the reasons why sex workers are striking:

“On March 8, in the spirit of solidarity as part of the International Women’s Strike, sex workers will strike against poverty, criminalization and stigma, whether by refusing to go to work, charging double rates or by any other action possible.”

 

The Women’s March on Washington is calling for a ‘Day without A Woman’ on March 8 too, International Women’s Day. The contingent is part of the IWS march in Oakland.

The "Quinta do Mocho" neighborhood has been considered for many years as a dangerous area. Situated a few kilometers from Lisbon (Portugal), in the LOURES municipality, the hood is very poor and composed of a huge majority of African immigrants, working on Loures industries around the hood.

 

Many of those workers have been relocated there when other near-by ghettos has been destroyed and rehabilitated.

 

The "O Bairro i o Mundo" festival has already produced something like 25 murals by portuguese artists in order to change the image of the area and is now starting to invite international artists ...

'Building Worker' ... a bronze statue celebrating the lives of workers killed on building sites, situated on Tower hill in London.

 

The Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians (Ucatt) had the sculpture made as part of a campaign for a new corporate killing charge.

 

Sculptor Alan Wilson created the figure which sports a hard hat, weighs 300kg and holds a spirit level. The statue was unveiled the 11th of October 2006. At that time, a total of 351 construction workers had died on sites since 2001.

 

The inscription on the statue reads: “For the thousands of building workers who have lost their lives at work, we commemorate you. For the thousands of building workers who are today building and rebuilding towns and cities across the United Kingdom, we celebrate you.”

65,000 jobs in Northeast Florida are related to port activity

$19 billion annually in economic impact

 

In Jacksonville alone, nearly 23,000 people are employed in port-dependent positions, jobs directly relying on the port. An additional 43,000 positions are related to cargo activity in the Port of Jacksonville; these are jobs within the region's manufacturing, retail, wholesale and distribution industries.

 

A study conducted in 2009 concludes these positions provide an average annual salary of $43,980, well above the Jacksonville average of $27,215 as cited by the Jacksonville Regional Chamber of Commerce.

 

Cargo activity in Jacksonville generates nearly $19 billion in total economic activity. The benefits are clear to those working in the maritime and related industries: $1.8 billion dollars in wages and salaries to those in jobs dependent on activity at the port and another $1.6 billion in personal income for those in positions related to the activity in the Port of Jacksonville throughout the region and state.

 

JAXPORT's marine facilities provide significant economic benefits to Northeast Florida through direct employment, sales and tax revenue, and through local firms that engage in international trade and travel.

A statue tribute to the slate workers in Alta of the past. The slate from this area as much prized as it was formed before life so has no fossils.

Expecting and nursing mothers require social protection but workers in the informal economy are often not covered. Maternity protection has been a primary concern of the ILO since its creation in 1919. Workplace support for mothers who are breastfeeding has been a basic provision of maternity protection. The Philippines expanded maternity leave benefits in 2019 to align with international labour standards. The ILO also promoted exclusive breastfeeding in the workplace to advance women’s rights to maternity protection and to improve nutrition security for Filipino children.

Old Communist era fresco.

 

I love this stuff. Ok, I'm not pro-Soviet style communism or anything. But I do think there's something noble in idealising ordinary people doing ordinary things like in alot of Soviet art.

 

These days you've got to be an obnoxious reality star to be admired. :)
