[Ct-nfb] Goodwill Boycott

[Justin Salisbury]

Some people silently disagree with the boycott. In all cases I've seen so far, it's because they don't know as much about it as they need to know in order for it to make sense.

If these people don't pipe up, we can't help them become comfortable with it.

At the end of the day, I want to see fair wages for workers with disabilities and our people happy and comfortable with the initiatives of the National Federation of the Blind.

If people are not yet comfortable supporting the boycott, I am asking them to speak up and explain why not so that we can help them become comfortable.

Good evening Justin,

I'm not sure I understand your message.  Did you wish to hear from those
that disagree so you can understand their point of view or so you could
attempt to alter their point of view?

Fellow Connecticut Federationists:

     Is everyone here in universal agreement about our boycott of Goodwill
Industries International, Inc.?  The student email lists have been
thoroughly discussing the boycott, HR 3086, and subminimum wages in the past
few weeks, but I haven't seen any discussion of it here.  If you are not in
agreement with it, please voice your concerns so that the rest of us can
help you come to terms with it.  Please do not fear being judged.

>From the Last Green Valley,

Justin Salisbury
