On Saturday morning, the South African Trade Union Congress unveiled a monument dedicated to the working class, completing a demonstration which was the practical expression of internationalism and class solidarity with the workers’ songs and slogans of South African Trade Unions accompanying the international delegations. The delegation of the FISE took part in the demonstration on Saturday with its own flags flying side by side with the flags of the unions from every corner of the world.
