Justice for Janitors Day, Friday, June 15th, kicks off a week of actions to win for the 99%.
On Friday June, 15th, we are going to take the streets in front of 31 St. James. One month ago building owner Capital Properties kicked out the union cleaning company for a non-union, poverty-wage company. 20 members of the SEIU Local 615, many of whom had dedicated over 10 years of service, lost their jobs.
Despite ongoing actions, a visit to CEO Richard Cohen’s New York office AND home, and a petition signed by over 100 tenants, he still refuses to respect the rights of cleaners to make a living wage.
Join us on Friday, June 15th, Justice for Janitors Day
Tell Richard Cohen: Bring back union cleaners!
Park Square Building, 31 St. James Street in the Back Bay
4pm – 6pm.
This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager
