Hosted by Chris Garlock & Ed Smith

“The harder they push back, the more literature they post in the back room, the more unionbusting they try to do, it just makes everyone at my store and across the country wanna fight even harder.”


December 9 marks the one-year anniversary of the organizing campaign at Starbucks, which first went public in Buffalo, New York; since then hundreds more across the country have organized and rallies across the country -- including in Arlington, Virginia -- are being held to mark the historic occasion. On today’s show local baristas Jillian O'Hare and Aleah Bacetti talk about why they’re organizing. Jillian works at the Willow Lawn location in Richmond, VA and Aleah worked at Bel Air Starbucks in Bel Air, Maryland.

Produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Kahlia Chapman.
