Is Rich Austin Jr. a racist? Last week he banned an American/Mexican member from attending a discrimination hearing, today he banned Mexican/American and African/American members from attending a JPLRC meeting.

The only thing missing from yesterday’s Seattle JPLRC meeting was the white sheets and those pillow cases with eye holes cut in.

Grand Wizard Rich Austin Jr., and his boy toy Dougie Stearns from PMA, told 2 members form Local 19 that they could not attend the JPLRC meeting, and that they could not help represent each other, then locked them out of the PMA offices to wait in the parking lot, all day, until their grievances were discussed.

The way they did what they did, makes it racist behavior.

The way little white guys like Rich Austin treat others, others that they are supposed to be representing, that determines whether or not their behavior is racist or not.

When little white guys like Rich Austin refuse to allow you into meetings you have a right to attend, and refuse to explain their reasons, or put what they are saying in writing, while aggressively and with anger, forcing you out of a room and slamming the door on you, it becomes obvious that they are racists.

Rich, you are a pathetic little racist, who doesn’t know shit from shineola when it comes to labor relations.

Rich you are an embarrassment to Local 19 and the entire ILWU.

How do you square your behavior with the ILWU motto; an injury to one is an injury to all?

This is not over Rich, it is just starting.

Definitely, more to come……
