"I just want to note that many smart people said Starbucks workers would never get to a contract, just like many smart people said what we're doing could never work. Determination goes a long way."

The governor of SC issues a warning to service workers and any other industry that wants to organize in SC:

"We will fight all the way to the gates of Hell, and we will win."

He also boasted about SC being the least unionized state in the country and vowed to keep it that way.

It's not too late to join the AFBU Krewe in this year's Mardi Gras parade!

The overall theme of the parade is "The Secret Garden," and our Krewe's theme is: "Thyme for Affordable Housing, There's Gnome Place Like Home."
(We'll be dressed as herbs and garden gnomes.)

This is what solidarity looks like ✊️💛

Everyone deserves the dignity of a consistent living wage.

[AFBU- Asheville F&B United @avlfbu]

Everyone deserves a consistent living wage that doesn't depend on other people's generosity. It's humiliating to think that our work isn't worth more than $2.13 an hour, or to pander to people simply in hopes that they'll tip us so we can pay our rent.

[WNC Workers Assembly @WncWorkers]

We stand in solidarity with workers everywhere.
Stay tuned for a call to action from these workers.

Working class solidarity matters. We gotta have it across all workplaces and in every industry.

[AFBU- Asheville F&B United @avlfbu]

Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting with a group of workers in Raleigh to discuss the newly formed Raleigh F&B United!! We even got to join them in solidarity when they went on strike Friday evening. Solidarity is brewing across the South!

[WNC Workers Assembly @WncWorkers]

Solidarity, y'all!
