Leo Gerard, USWA president, speaks out
The new USWA International President, Leo Garard, delivered a nationally significant speech to the anti-FTAA protest in Chicago before a crowd of 1,000 at the Hendrickson Spring plant on April 21. President Gerard brags about being part of the street confrontations in Quebec earlier that week, and appears to be cut from different cloth than some other AFL-CIO Executive Council members. -- photo report and transcription by Haldon Sutton
