Baltimore: Support Bessemer Amazon WorkersSaturday, March 20 - 2:00 p.m.Gather at City Hall, 100 Holliday St. - March to Amazon’s Whole FoodsHostedby Peoples Power AssemblyMarch 20 is the next national day of action in solidarity with Alabama Amazon workers. Please join us to send a clear message to Jeff Bezos and Amazon that we support the Bessemer Alabama workers who are standing up for a union. We say stop union-busting!Workers everywhere inspired by the majority, Black workers in Bessemer fighting to win the first U.S. union at Amazon, are prepared to continue building the solidarity movement that’s arisen around this historic struggle!The weekend of March 20 is also the U.N. Anti-Racism Day, with actions worldwide. March 21 is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. These two calls for action are connected, as we know that the fight against racism and building worker power are inextricably linked.A few weeks are left until voting in Bessemer ends on March 29. As Amazon and their union busters, Morgan Lewis, continue to roll out dirty trick after dirty trick, our demonstration will come at a consequential time.Baltimore activists and community leaders have urged City Council members to pass a resolution. We haven’t heard back yet. So we will plan a protest at City Hall and then March to Whole Foods.Social distancing and masks required. We will have PPE available.The local protest is sponsored and endorsed by (list in formation):Baltimore and Maryland Amazon Workers for JusticePeoples Power AssemblyReverend Annie ChambersDr. Marvin “Doc” Cheatham, President, Matthew Henson Neighborhood Association (West Baltimore)Reverend CD WitherspoonPrisoners Solidarity CommitteeWomen in Struggle/Mujeres En LuchaDr. Kenneth Morgan, Coalition Black Trade Unionist * for ID onlyBaltimore Peace ActionPopular ResistanceBill Goodin, writer, The National Black Unity News, and community activistStruggle-La LuchaYouth Against War & RacismKermit Leibensperger, Shop steward, UFCW Local 1994 -- source link
