Vol. 74/No. 3 January 25, 2010
The week after the strike a Militant team sold out the 26 papers they had with them during the Saturday shift change. The Militant had an article reporting on the strike. The sales team set up a small table with books published by Pathfinder Press. One man who was picking up his companion who works in the plant bought Is Socialist Revolution in the U.S. Possible? He also bought a copy of the Militant supplement featuring the introduction to the forthcoming book Malcolm X, Black Liberation, and the Road to Workers Power.
The following week another sales team sold 12 Militants at the entrance to the plant. Militant supporters Kevin Dwire and Sarah Ullman reported several workers had their dollar in their hand ready to purchase the paper as soon as they saw the sales team.
In spite of some light snow flurries and below freezing weather, four sewing machine operators in Manhattans garment district bought the Militant January 8. Distributors of the Militant also passed out dozens of flyers for an upcoming Militant Labor Forum during the sale in front of a building that houses several clothing factories.
