| The
National Lawyers Guild is an association dedicated
to the need for basic change in the structure of our
political and economic system. The Guild unites lawyers,
law students, and legal workers as an effective political
and social force in the service of the people. Our
aims:
*to
eliminate
racism;
*to safeguard and strengthen the rights of workers,
women, farmers and minority groups, upon whom the
welfare of the entire nation depends;
*to maintain and protect our civil rights and liberties
in the face of persistent attacks upon them;
* to use
the law as an instrument for the protection of the
people, rather than for their repression.
"...to
the end that human rights shall be regarded as more
sacred than property interests. |
