APALA Philly Chapter | Empowering the labor struggle within API communities in Southeast Pennsylvania

[APALA Philly @ApalaPhilly]

As AAPI workers, we know all too well the pervasive impact of US militarism, both abroad and within US borders. From Philly to Palestine, we unite to fight for justice and collective liberation. Read our thoughts here, and join us in the streets! 👇https://t.co/TOT9Aeihoe

[APALA Philly @ApalaPhilly]

APALA Philly stands with the Palestinian people and calls for the end of US military aid to Israel. We believe that the labor movement must be anti-imperialist in our struggle for liberation and justice of the global working class. Please read this very thoughtful thread below 👇

[ACRE @ACREcampaigns]

We urge political leaders in the United States to take immediate steps towards defunding the war in Gaza & addressing the root causes of violence: Israel’s ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.

Billionaires want to snatch up land in Center City to kick start gentrification in Chinatown so they can develop it and make money. Tell city council we can’t let real estate vultures drive what happens in the heart of our city. #NoArena

International human rights experts are paying attention to #76Place because this playbook of displacement-for-profit threatens not just Chinatown, but communities across Philadelphia. https://t.co/ONCYAOqT9X

[Justice for Jollibee Workers @JollibeeWorkers]

We are one step closer to JUSTICE‼️

The National Labor Relations Board @nlrbgov officially brought formal charges against @JollibeeUSA for violating federal labor law by illegally terminating 9 New Jersey workers after petitioning for higher wages and better working conditions.

Ever had someone make & then try to break a committement? @philamuseum is reneging on key agreements in the @pma_union contract for which workers fought so hard. Shame! Please take 20 seconds to sign & share this petition: https://t.co/TT8zekHg0s

#NoArena in the ❤️ of our city! Hands off Chinatown!!!

[APALA Philly @ApalaPhilly]

It’s simple: housing is a labor issue. Racial justice is a labor issue. Fighting corporate greed is a labor issue. We are proud to stand up for our city, for our Chinatown, and for every Chinatowns and ethnic enclaves under attack by corporate developers. #NoArenaInChinatown

[Councilmember Kendra Brooks @KendraPHL]

Chinatown has survived for 150 years because the community, along with organizations like @apipennsylvania and @AsAmUnited, fought to be here. Chinatown is one of the few remaining communities of color and low-income communities in Center City, and they are here to stay.
