Opportunity For Protest: The Schlumberger 2 Case
On February 29, 2008 @ 1:30pm central there will be a huge protest of the company in Houston:

Some Reasons Why "WE, THE PEOPLE" Should Support The Schlumberger 2:

The work environment of some of these leading oil companies are horrible for people of color…Particularly for women of color…

I have a friend (Sis. Tawanna Thierry ) down in Houston that is currently fighting one of the largest oil companies in the world, Schlumberger…She and her colleague Dr. Candi Hudson have filed a lawsuit last year which details race and sex discrimination…They are currently on leave with pay pending the company investigation…Basically their careers in that field are over…

I created a name for these sisters: The Schlumberger 2

Bro. Marcus Jones (the father of Jena 6’s Mychal Bell and a good friend of mine) told me about these sisters on Saturday Jan. 19, 2008…I interviewed Sis. Tawanna Thierry along with Bro. Marcus Jones and Bro. Joe Lawrence of the National Action Network on my internet radio show last month…You can listen to the actual show (it’s the first hour) by clicking on the following link:

These are educated sisters but yet they had to deal with white men exposing themselves to them on the job and with racial slurs and other degrading words hurled at them on a daily basis…This is not a coincidence…The oil industry is notorious for these types of cases…Recall the Texaco incident from the 1990s where oil execs were caught on tape calling Black employees “Black Jelly Beans”:

They ended up paying the plaintiffs 476 million dollars, which is pocket money to Texaco anyway…

Schlumberger has a long history of job discrimination and sexual harassment not only in the U.S., but around the world...Here are some of their most recent offenses:

They also were forced to pay recently millions of dollars for environmental damages in the U.S.:

These sisters need all the help and media attention they can get…They don’t have legal representation because all the lawyers in the Houston area are in bed with Schlumberger…If you know anybody or any entity that can help these sisters please e-mail Sis. Tawanna Thierry at tthierry@sbcglobal.net …She can also be reached by phone 832-694-7845


Change is definitely in the air and I am not talking about Barack…

However, I am a proud hope monger!!!

This is the new chapter of the World Civil Rights Movement…This is the unfinished business from the previous generation…I hope you join me in making this world a better place to live and breathe for our kids as well as for us…

I hope you all are willing to fight for justice just as we are so willing to fight each other…
All Power To The People
