#Workers from Breads Bakery, a prominent #NewYorkCity bakery, announced their unionisation last week, calling for an end to the company’s “support of the #genocide happening in #Palestine,” and demanding better working conditions.

In the announcement, which was first delivered as a speech to the company’s CEO at the bakery’s flagship location, #union organisers decried the bakery’s “implicit and explicit” support for #Israel.

“We see our struggles for fair pay, respect, and safety as connected to struggles against #genocide and forces of exploitation around the world.”
