The Tide (Protest Song) by Sharee Anne Gorman

Help implement SAME JOB/SAME WAGE global policy to end the cycle of corporate exploitation! Sign the Global Labor Treaty! http://www.change.org/petitions/sign-to-enact-a-global-labor-treaty-world-pea...

It was labor that sparked Economic Justice and Freedom Movements around the globe and, I believe, it will be labor that unites the world in solidarity.

http://1world1wage.org advocates a Global Labor Treaty to eliminate the corporate practice of off-shoring jobs abroad as a strategy for busting unions domestically at home.

Profit Comes From Somewhere! It comes from under-paid workers, over-charged consumers and resources taken for pennies out the back doors of destabilized countries.

Citizens must band together, globally.

Only by acting "en masse" will the Citizen/Worker be engaged in true democracy! Only by acting as a living, breathing, globally united "checks and balances" to the Will to Power will the privileged few be held accountable for exploiting the many.

Please take a moment to sign the petition to the United Nations for a Global Labor Treaty. I promise, you won't get pepper-sprayed. http://www.change.org/petitions/sign-now-to-enact-a-global-labor-treaty-world...

There needs to be a single point of accountability and the United Nations is going to be increasingly important as world leaders realize they can no longer hide their abuses beneath a blanket of insular state propaganda.

It's time to take the fight for Equality, Economic Justice and Corporate Accountability to the world stage!!

It's time for a Global Labor Treaty!!

Loved this video. I am 70 years old and I know how my parents and grandparents worked hard and protested unfair practices in the work place. I pray that the younger generation will study the history of how and who made America a great country and keep protesting when they see it being taken over by those entities who are trying to change this country into a corporate wall street owned country.

How come a great video like this gets 893 views and Sarah Palin's video's get millions of hits? Nothing will change in this shit hole called the US until we have different priorities.

We need to take away personhood from corporations as the original Constitution intended. Corporations are not persons. People are persons. We need to take over the oil corporations like Venezuela did and we will not have a debt crisis and we will then have funds for food,healthcare,housing,and green jobs and have funding for renewable energy. The natural resources of our nation belong to the people not to corporations. The oil,coal,minerals,air,land,for­est,trees,fish,ocean belong to the people

I love the message but we have forgotten our history. We are NOT a democracy we were intended to be a republic. Democracy in the hands of our federal government leaves people with NO REAL CHOICE OR VOICE. We must decrease the size and scope of our wasteful federal government, introduce shorter term limits and give power and money back to the states. At the local level WE CAN HOLD OUR POLITICIANS ACCOUNTABLE & VOTE THEM OUT if they don't act as we see fit. And it shouldn't take 4 years to do so.

Beautiful song! I, too, am 70 & worked very hard to bring social justice & an end to war in our world. I also hope that the younger generation will rise up ~ we will join you & support you!

Poignant, honest and laser accurate. Among others, saw Noam Chomsky - cool.

Good voice, a bit soft spoken and hard to hear sometimes. Really good voice though and an excellent video.
