I've been having a conversation with Huck Gutman, a City Market board member, 
who coincidentally was featured in the last issue of the zine (Soldiers for 
Hire).  I would say that Prof. Gutman is sympathetic to the cause, but he is 
not involved in the negotiation process.  However, he seems happy to represent 
member-owner concerns to the management.  I recomend emailing him anything you 
write.

I'd rather not post our conversation, but I'd be happy to send it to 
interested parties.

Seven Days has a nominal policy of only accepting letters in response to their 
articles.  That said I've seen all sorts of off the wall letters that have 
nothing to do with what 7D has printed.

I also recommend sending a letter to Bernie Sanders.  An open letter from him 
on this issue would be great.


If you are not currently a member, I strongly urge you to become one.  It 
requires a $200 deposit (not a fee), but you only need to provide $25 for the 
first year.  Once a member-owner you can vote in the board elections.  The 
board has the power to fire the GM, who has been at the heart of many of these 
problems.
