A.k.a. George Myers
George Myers was a Jamaican refrigeration mechanic and labor organizer from West Kingston. In 1969, he led a wildcat strike and workers’ council at Western Meat Packers in Westmoreland, and was a major organizer of the Unemployed Workers Council and Independent Trade Union Advisory Council. He was a profound critic of electoral party politics and trade union hierarchy and was among the most proletarian political theorists of his generation. His articles and pamphlets survey struggles for workers’ organization in banana and sugar cane fields, bauxite mines, clerical offices, and industrial factories. He wrote under many pseudonyms such as Joseph Edwards, Morganron Stern and Fundi The Caribbean Situationist.
