Immigrant Workers Fighting Back!
March down Knickerbocker to demand equal rights for immigrant workers!

Join Us Saturday January 20th and Demand Justice!
Saturday at 10am meet up at Make The Road by Walking - Menahan and Myrtle .

March with us down Knickerbocker Ave

first stop Associated supermarket and then to Handyfat!

In an attempt to rise out of sweatshop conditions, immigrant workers in Brooklyn have engaged in strikes, Boycotts protests, and filed lawsuits alleging systematic wage and overtime violations.

Join Make the Road by Walking and the IWW in a march through Bushwick to protest the widespread failure to pay immigrant workers minimum wage and overtime throughout Bushwick. At Associated Supermarket owners have committed egregious wage violations against their workers, including failure to pay minimum wage and overtime, and having some workers paid in tips only with absolutely no benefits. At Handyfat, a warehouse that distributes restaurant supplies, 22 workers were illegally fired over the holidays for organizing a union with the IWW and demanding back pay for years of failure to pay minimum wage and overtime.

We will be meeting up at 11AM at Menahan and Myrtle in Bushwick
