These tomato pickers earn 86 cents per 25 lb bucket. On an average day a worker fills around 170 buckets --or more than 4000 pounds of tomatoes picked by hand. The fruit is picked green so it ripens red by the time it reaches your store. #WeFeedYou

A farm worker near Ave Maria, Florida, seeks prayers after their work bus is stopped by ICE. As a result, they begin systematically abducting each of them one by one. Tragically, they have not been heard from since.

When white autistic people respond with anger say things like ‘we all struggle’ or ‘why make it about race’ when Black autistic people share our struggles, the focus shifts away from the Black autistic person’s reality & back to white feelings

Starbucks employees have long fought against consistently unpredictable schedules, short staffing, low pay, and unfair labor practices.
Today, @sbworkersunited.org is striking to demand progress in stalled negotiations.

We really need to address how society is normalizing sexual assault on children and the youth to protect the elite.
Like, every excuse so far:
- Age of Consent used to be...
- He did it years ago
- As long as it's not my child
- The victim asked for it

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

You can help the striking Starbucks employees by not buying anything from the company.
Employees were offered a 50 cent wage increase amidst billion dollar profits.
Hit them in the wallet, that’s all they respond to.
Support local independent coffee shops instead!

Starbucks workers this Thursday 11/13 are starting a long strike to win a first union contract
*** NOBODY SHOULD BUY ANYTHING FROM STARBUCKS AS LONG AS WORKERS ARE STRIKING ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY***
Consumer boycotts are very powerful when combined with workplace militancy

Headed to DHS to attempt to correct one of the more devastating I.C.E. kidnappings I’ve encountered.
I put our chance of success at about 25% because ICE and DHS are straight-up not following the law.
