Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year, is just a few days away. With your help, it could be a huge day in an ongoing workers rights struggle affecting nearly a million women nationwide.
In October, 70 Walmart workers walked off the job, the first strike of Walmart workers in the company's 50 year history. They walked after facing retaliation--threats, suspensions, and firings--for complaints about rock-bottom wages and poor working conditions. But despite having no union and no protections, these brave workers took action.
On Black Friday, organizers are taking the strike nationwide--to thousands of stores and the nearly one million women who work for Walmart in the U.S.
An estimated 70% of Walmart's hourly workforce is women. Now, UltraViolet members can show Walmart just how many of us stand with their workers--and how many of us won't be shopping there on Black Friday. Join this growing movement, and sign the statement of solidarity today.
