Well, the March 6th rally against York University’s sweatshop policy was a HUGE success and it goes to show what a group of dedicated and stubborn students (along with jugs of water and pizza) can accomplish. The event ended up getting a lot of press coverage throughout the city and that probably played a huge role in prompting Dr. Shoukri to crawl out of the cave he’d been hiding in for almost two days. In the end, the President, after 45 hours, finally agreed to meet with students and commit to changing York’s stance on sweatshops. I got a lot of nice pics of the rally and the march to the president’s office that ensued; I put some pics below, but if you wanna check out the whole album then visit my Flickr page. I should have some video footage up soon as well, but I just gotta take the time to upload them. Enjoy!
