| | Workers World Oct. 16, 2003: Workers at Ford-Genk fight back |
 | | Workers at the Ford plant in Genk, Belgium, refuse to accept the loss of 3,000 of their 9,000 jobs without a fight. |
 | | Instead, since Ford announced job cuts on Oct. 2, fl smoke from burning tires and other debris could be seen rising from the area of the Ford factory where workers blocked gates and stopped deliveries to the factory. |
 | | DeWitte also called for solidarity not only among the 9,000 Belgian, Italian and Turkish-born workers at Genk but of all auto workers throughout Belgium, and to mobilize the region around the Genk plant to fight to save the jobs. |
