ASSI ESCUCHA! ESTAMOS EN LA LUCHA!
BOYCOTT ASSI !
3525 W. 8th (We will be on the Oxford Ave side).
Plan on joining the locked out workers Saturday at noon for a larger event..
Here's a starting point for research into this issue. Supermarkets have, classically, been union organized, and considered pretty good jobs with benefits. Ethnic supermarkets, despite making the same profit as a mainstream chain like Ralph's, are not organized. Unions, unwilling or unable to organize undocumented workers and minorities, have overlooked this significant sector of the economy. It's into this space that organizations like KIWA enter and work.
