IWW March Against Wage Slavery

We will be marching on Starbucks and Wild Edibles Manhattan locations.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a tireless fighter for social justice. Every year, the IWW marches on MLK Day to honor his legacy.

We march on the workplaces in which we are organizing to show solidarity with our fellow workers and send a clear message to the bosses that we stand united against all forms of slavery!

We are calling on Starbucks to pay the holiday premium on MLK Day.

We are calling on Wild Edibles owner Richard Martin to stop union-busting, rehire fired workers, and settle his ongoing labor dispute with the workers.
