Welcome to ‘act out loud’, a page of musings on politics both local and global written by members of the Political Action Committee.

This page is envisioned as a space for members to post their thoughts on the political worlds around us, to participate in collective learning, and to connect with others through thoughtful discussion.  Currently you’ll find posts of articles written by members for the Ally (CUPE 3906′s quarterly newsletter) on topics ranging from the G20, to food politics, to ongoing labour struggles in Hamilton.

As we get this page going we can hopefully include a lot more.  If you’d like to submit an original piece or a response to anything here (poetic or prose, images or text), please send it to politicalaction@cupe3906.org (all pieces will be reviewed and proof-read before being posted).
