Times Square Counter-Recruitment with the War Resister’s League

September 8, 2007 · Posted in History · Comment 

The War Resisters blockaded the recruiting center, with two waves of arrests before shutting it down for the day. We showed up later in the day to help boost visibility and morale. “Patriotic” counter-protesters called us “Traitors dressed up like clowns.”

ROC-NY Picket: Cafe Fiorello

September 6, 2007 · Posted in History, history-stub · Comment 

Cafe Fiorello, NYC

Months and months ago, restaurant workers entered mediation in good faith with
culinary emperor Shelly Fireman to settle claims of stolen tips, unpaid wages,
and pervasive racial discrimination and sexual harassment at his restaurants.
Fireman’s tarrying in mediation has now compelled workers and their supporters
to resume protests in front of his cafes.  Join the Rude Mechanical Orchestra
in supporting the workers Thursday September 6 as they show Fireman that power
lies beyond the careful auspices of the conference room.
