✊ Ansley Mall Starbucks Strike Recap ✊

Last Thursday, workers at the Ansley Mall Starbucks went on strike to protest corporate's refusal to meet them at the bargaining table. DSA was joined by IUPAT, United Campus Workers, and Unite Here on the picket line to support our Starbucks Workers United comrades.
