Support the Miami hunger strikers!
6-22-6 - UPDATE:
The Hunger Strike is over - Miami administrators have agreed to bargain with the union!
ORIGINAL ALERT:
Students at the University of Miami are hunger striking to demand that Miami President, and former Clinton cabinet member Donna Shalala honor the right of campus janitors to form a union. This hunger strike is ongoing and follows on the heels of a two-week hunger strike by janitors at the university. They need your support.
It's been a month of student and student labor sit-ins, ranging from Virginia to the Florida State Capitol to Berkeley. Students have also won a series of victories in their struggle to create a national anti-sweatshop Designated Supplier Program. And students have joined together with faculty, staff, and community members in a series of Tent State Universities (read below).
Across the US, students have taken the initiative. You can make a difference by supporting the Miami students on hunger strike:
