The @southernmovt stands in solidarity with the @SWA_solidarity call to Action on February 20th in solidarity with the striking Alabama workers at @amazon.

Please continue to check southernworker.org/amazon for the latest listing of actions in your area.
From southernworker.org:

Between Feb. 8 & March 29, approximately 6,000 @amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama will begin voting by mail on whether to be represented by the Retail, Wholesale Department Store Workers Union (RWDSU). @BAmazonUnion @SWA_solidarity
The harsh working conditions at @amazon warehouses, along with Amazon’s refusal to adopt measures that protect workers from #COVID19, have pushed Amazon and Whole Foods workers everywhere to step up organizing and fighting back.

@BAmazonUnion @SWA_solidarity
These predominantly Black workers who recently formed the @BAmazonUnion, are on the cusp of launching a history-changing workers organization against one of the biggest and most powerful transnational corporations in the world, and its super rich union busting owner, Jeff Bezos.
They are standing up to the racist, anti-union laws that suppress labor across the South.

Solidarity from every corner of the labor and progressive movements is needed now to show the workers in Bessemer that they are not alone. @BAmazonUnion @SWA_solidarity @southernmovt
