"Guitars should be a means to liberation, not exploitation. No one should have their job taken away because they stand up for their rights" Tom Morello, Rage Against the Machine.

For more than 1000 days, S. Korean guitar workers and their supporters have protested against their illegal mass firing by Cort/Cor-tek Guitars.

January 8 -17: S. Korean and U.S. labor unions, community organizations, musicians, artists, and NAMM trade show attendees joined the Cort Action campaign in LA and Anaheim. Organizations and people lent their skills, their voices, and ideas and took the stage in public spaces in LA and in front of NAMM to amplify the struggle of the Cort/Cor-tek workers for their livelihoods and for worker rights:
