Amazon workers and Teamster' members began strike action at Amazon facilities across the country today. Let's support them and make sure they get a fair contract. @Teamsters – at Bronx, NY
Amazon Teamsters from facilities all across the country are uniting to win their first Teamsters contract at the trillion-dollar company.
Amazon is legally obligated to bargain with more than 20 Teamsters driver and warehouse units nationwide, but Amazon just keeps breaking the line by refusing to do so.
The Teamsters Union will organize Amazon — and workers will secure the rights, respect, wages, benefits, and job protections they’ve earned.

With the San Francisco 49ers back in the Super Bowl, we remember Colin Kaepernick, who took them there in 2013 and shook the NFL with his simple act of kneeling against police brutality. ow.ly/voCq50QzecQ

Before everyone gets settled in to watch the #SuperBowl let us not forget how the #NFL treated Colin Kaepernick.
It was never about the flag…

We need to switch the script on top down development. We need to control development in our communities. We need public land for public good!

“In the South Bronx we have to stand up and fight back. Our children deserve different outcomes.
If we don’t have community-driven development we’re only going to see more of the same. We need public land for the public good.”

Approx. 17k NYSNA nurses at 12 NYC private sector hospitals have union contracts expiring on Dec. 31. However, management continues to resist when it comes to safe staffing, fair wages & maintaining quality health benefits.
That’s why nurses have begun strike vote authorization.
Mychal Johnson retweeted
Nurses don’t compromise in providing quality care for us & they shouldn’t have to compromise when it comes to being protected at work.
There’s no reason they should have to strike for safe staffing, benefits, & fair wages…but if that’s what needs to happen, then let’s go!
