Today is this old broad's 76th birthday & she's still fighting racism like it's 1964. Here's a mug shot from my arrest 56 yrs ago at the Normal Tea Room, a Memphis State University hangout where 6 of us staged a sit-in. I was kicked out of school because of it.
My old man turns up to work this morning as normal and he’s met by the company director to tell him that they’re closing the factory, took his phone and the factory keys off him and sent them all home there and then. What a way to treat your workers the absolute bastards.
Just imagine if the gov’t stepped in w/ procedures that are coordinated across the industry & in line w/ healthcare authority guidance. This pandemic is the only job our gov’t has rn. Can you imagine what it’s like for a Flight Attendant or gate agent trying to enforce this mess?
ENOUGH! This was TODAY on a four hour flight. This is not okay. Masks must be mandated by DOT/HHS in airports and on airplanes. Essential travel only, with proper PPE. #COVID19#StopTheSpread
Today, the @FryeArtMuseum told us they was laying off over 20 staffers, including a union member on our bargaining committee. We're out here protesting to demand reinstatement and justice!
We won't stand for union busting.
