Last week, workers and unions in Melbourne, Australia had a victory for workers to hold political views when Roz Ward, an academic at La Trobe University was reinstated after a short suspension. Ms. Ward is one of the co-founders of the Safe School curriculum which aims to promote acceptance of LGBTI students. Roz has been subjected to a sustained attack by conservative and reactionary forces that resulted in her being suspended at the university. A strong and immediate response by her union and other labour activists, led to her being reinstated after a few days, see video.
