Fired IWW Baristas Conduct Delegation to Starbucks Regional HQ to Demand Jobs, Right to Organize
Submitted on Wed, 11/29/2006 - 2:18pm
IWW members in Chicago, and a friend from Teamsters Local 705, leafleted half-a-dozen Starbucks locations in downtown Chicago on Friday, 24 November as part of the international day of solidarity with Starbucks Workers Union. We distributed about 900 leaflets in a couple of hours and made contact with a number of baristas. Hopefully these contacts will get in touch with our SWU organizing committee and the start we've made at the Logan Square store will expand to other locations. Solidarity Forever!
