The Northwest Detention Center,
Tomlinson Linen, and cowardice.
For the end of the Year, the Organizer brings you some of the best articles we've received yet!
Robert Sorenson is a master's candidate at the University of Washington, Tacoma, who has devoted considerable time and effort to researching the realities of the Northwest Detention Center, located right here on Tacoma's tideflats, at 1623 East J Street. Here we are treated to an introduction to the facility, in the first of a series of articles on this Immigration and Customs Enforcement prison.
This contribution from Washington State Jobs with Justice's Jacob Carton details Tomlinson Linen's attacks on their own workers. Other local businesses, including Anthony's, the Western Hotel, and Tom Douglass and Blue Water Restaurants have been notified of the problems with Tomlinson's treatment of their workers, and have thus far failed to support the effort for fair wages and working conditions.
And, an untitled meditation on cowardice, by Ceth Hickey.
