Rally Against Racism at City Market, Burlington

Past event
Nov 25, 2013, 5 to 7 PM

Let us SHOW UP AND SHOW OUT! We CANNOT and SHALL NOT allow City Market to become ENGLISH ONLY and OVERTLY OPPRESS people of color!

From the City Market Workers' Union: A new "English only" rule in the City Market kitchen is targeting our Swahili speaking members. Refugees from all parts of Africa are being told by managers they cannot speak their native language due to "safety reasons." Contemplate this: What is the difference between "Whites only" and "English Only?"

We MUST stand in solidarity with these workers. SHOW UP on Monday, November 25, 2013 at 4:45 PM, BRING A SIGN, and DO YOUR PART to ERADICATE RACISM and assimilation in VT. Racism is everyone's issue. Take a stance!
