The Iraqi Teachers Union has issued an emergency appeal for support - the union faces a government takeover. Tomorrow, teachers in their thousands are going to demonstrate in the streets of Baghdad. All they're asking us to do is send off email protest messages. Please click here to learn more and send off your protest now.

Once you've done that, please sign in to UnionBook and join the group there which supports the Iraqi teachers. We'll use that group to discuss what we're doing in our different countries to support this important struggle in Iraq.

Please spread the word -- pass this message on!

Thanks very much.
