Summary of interview: Ron Judd, formerly of the King County Labor Council, discusses the groundwork for the successful demonstration in Seattle, and the early involvement of several groups like the KCLC. Besides revealing the campaign activity and actions leading up to the WTO protests, Judd also discusses the strategies, beginning processes and KCLC's goals for the mobilization around the WTO.
