Corporations like Amazon have exploited their workforces for years, and coronavirus has only made it worse.
As if their low wages and insufficient benefits weren't enough, Amazon has refused to take proper precautions to keep their employees safe from the COVID-19 pandemic.
In response, workers at a warehouse in Staten Island went on strike on Tuesday to protest the company's lack of action when coronavirus cases began to appear in their workplace.
For daring to demand basic safety protections, Amazon fired the worker who organized the strike then -- as proven by a leaked internal memo -- pursued a PR strategy to smear his character.

STAND WITH STRIKING WORKERS ([link removed])
On this day 52 years ago, Martin Luther King was assassinated while planning a campaign to demand safer conditions and better pay for striking sanitation workers in Memphis, TN.
The fact that American companies continue to exploit workers over 50 years later -- even in the middle of a global pandemic -- is why we need to stand in solidarity with exploited workers and continue organizing for workers rights.
Workers at warehouses, grocery stores, and other essential workers deserve guaranteed sick pay, fair wages, and proper safety equipment -- AND WE MUST KEEP FIGHTING UNTIL THEY GET IT.
Sign here to stand in solidarity with all American workers who are demanding to be treated like human beings by their profitable corporate employers. ([link removed])
