With a last minute change of location from the Dunkin’ Donuts on Broad St. in Central Falls to the Burger King on Lonsdale Ave., Jobs with Justice launched their fourth action for $15 an hour and and unionization for fast food workers. Burger King management kept the doors to the restaurant locked but they couldn’t stop the voices of workers demanding fair wages for long hours of work. Towards the end, Charles, a ten year employee of Burger King, spoke briefly about the impossibility of supporting oneself on the paltry wages on offer. The next event is at noon in Warwick, I’ll have pictures from that event soon.
