Justice and solidarity are key for Earl Silbar, who recently retired as a GED teacher and as AFSCME 3506’s chief steward. In the early ‘60s, he became active in the civil rights movement and then served 5 years in the antiwar movement with independent antiwar committees, SDS, and the Progressive Labor Party. Those years shaped his lifelong revolutionary socialist convictions and activism in antiracist groups, international labor and anti-imperialist solidarity campaigns, in-plant factory union organizing drives, and helping organize adult education teachers in the City Colleges. red1pearl@aol.com
