The international campaign to defend the ILA 1422 Charleston Five was carried to San Francisco when ILA President Ken Riley came to the city in February 2001 to publicize their case
to the San Francisco Labor Council.
The Charleston Five struggle was successful with the support and action of many transportation unions around the world including the Spanish dockworkers union and the ILWU on the west coast. ILWU Local 10 played a pivotal role in supporting this effort.
