Between Feb. 8 and March 29, approximately 6,000 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, AL will be voting by mail on whether to be represented by the Retail, Wholesale, Department store workers Union (RWDSU).
The harsh working conditions at Amazon warehouses, along with the corporation’s refusal to take the necessary measures needed to protect workers from COVID 19 have pushed Amazon and Whole Foods workers everywhere to step up organizing and fight back.
SOLIDARITY is needed NOW to show the workers in Bessemer that they are not alone, that all eyes are on the historic struggle they are leading for the advance of all workers’ rights

Initiated by the Southern Workers Assembly, Atlanta community members will be having a demonstration of solidarity with the Bessemer Amazon workers on February 20th @ Whole Foods 650 Ponce de Leon Avenue, Atlanta, GA 30308 (across the street from Ponce City Market) from 12:00pm-1:30 pm.

WHEN WE FIGHT TOGETHER, WE WIN!

BRING SIGNS, BANNERS, NOISEMAKERS
