The HOPE not hate campaign is reaching all corners of the globe. Here is a picture of Richard Trumka, Secretary-Treasurer of the AFL-CIO (the US version of the TUC), with one of our HOPE not hate T-shirts.

Also in the picture are Patrick Eiding, President of the Philadelphia Council of the AFL-CIO, and Liz McElroy, the council's Political Director.

Trumka gave one of the most important speeches of the election campaign when he addressed the annual conference of the United Steelworkers of America in July.

It is well worth a listen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QIGJTHdH50
