On August 22, 2018, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit ruled that outdoor food sharing by Food Not Bombs was protected under the First Amendment.
@NoelGallo5 It must become affordable again. Rent should not be more than $700 per month for people who make minimum wage.
I don't see how you could watch this and ever buy one of these cakes. They make the cakes for Safeway, Walmart, Red Robin and Baskin Robbins. I can't believe someone hasn't sued the shit out of them yet.
NEW: Workers who make cakes for Baskin Robbins are forced to work 12-14 hours/day, make 13+ cakes/minute & get 3 sick days/year. Workers say they’ve developed arthritis & been denied time off for cancer treatments. Now 100+ mainly immigrant Latina workers are on strike.

The agreement requires Wedgewood to revamp its business practices, adhere to stringent state and local renter protections and submit regular compliance reports to DoJ. About $2.75 million of the settlement will be paid to tenants unlawfully evicted by Wedgewood across the state.

The cruelty is the point. The whole damn system has got to go.
To be clear: he was charged with a non-violent class E felony (the lowest level felony possible). And, for anyone who doesn't know, the CJA score is a scale that calculates your flight risk. So, the higher your score, the more likely you are to come to court.
The DA just requested 5K cash bail +15K insurance bond +15K partially secured bond for someone who received a near perfect CJA score (22 out of 25) & has no arrests in the last 10 years & is not working right now. Judge Charlotte Davidson knew these facts & set cash bail anyway.
Recently, legislators who visited Rikers have been visiting arraignment proceedings to witness how the #RootsOfRikers can be traced back to ruthless bail setting practices in court rooms across the city. Tonight, it’s my turn. I’ll be sharing tidbits from Manhattan night court.
@tarikhcampbell You are owed damages and should at least take them to small claims court.
The Great Waterfront Strike of 1901 is considered a victory for workers. The employers were compelled to honor their original agreements with the Unions, and the Unions in SF saw their ranks increase by thousands. The anti-labor Employers' Association was defunct within 2 years
On Oct. 2nd, 1901, the governor announced the strike was over after the Draymen’s Association, Brotherhood of Teamsters, and Civic Front Federation came to an agreement. The formally ratified agreement basically returned to the status quo before the strike.
120 years ago today, the City Front Federation of San Francisco called a general strike of all member Unions in response to the union-busting practices of the Draymen's Association and the capitalist-backed Employers' Association...foundsf.org/index.php?titl…
