March Down Hollywood

Labor Solidarity with Writers

March and Rally on Tuesday, Nov. 20

Help write a new chapter in Hollywood history. Join thousands of members of the Writers Guild of America as the WGA begins week three of its strike against the media conglomerates of the AMPTP. March down Hollywood Boulevard with film and TV writers, actors, musicians, Teamsters, Service Employees and other unions in this fight for justice.

More than 10,000 writers are on the front lines of the fight to preserve decent working standards against corporate power.

1:00 pm: Assemble at Hollywood Blvd. and Ivar Ave.
1:30 pm: March down Hollywood Blvd.


A few interesting posts from United Hollywood on how the force majeure letters have backfired on the corporations and driven the writers and actors into stronger solidarity.

It's important to remember that all the trade guilds benefit from residuals, not just writers, actors, and directors.

And a ton of information on big media consolidation.
