On Thursday, @bluebottle illegally fired Abbey Sadow in retaliation for her union organizing. Our members in the Chestnut Hill location conducted a march on the boss shortly after, demanding that the store manager, Jenny Harbold, reinstate Abbey before the end of the day yesterday.

In 1889, schoolkids in Britain held a nationwide wave of school walkouts, taking to the streets to demand shorter hours, less homework, less corporal punishment and free education. We have now mapped lots of these & built a timeline on our Stories app: stories.workingclasshistory.com/tag/15377/18...
