South African National Union of Metal Workers treasurer Mphumzi Maqungo spoke on May 3, 2014 in Berkeley, California about the political and social developments in the South African labor movement. His union has called for the resignation of the ANC Zuma government after the massacre in Marikana and is organizing to launch a mass workers party in South Africa that is committed to carrying out the Freedom Charter previously passed by the ANC but abandoned by the present ANC government. The meeting was sponsored by the Transportation Workers Solidarity Committee TWSC and the May Day Committee In Solidarity With South African Workers.
