The Birth of an Activist

Amy here from the Long Island Federation of Labor, a central labor council in New York. I became involved in the labor movement about ten years ago when a group of farmworkers fighting for humane working conditions sought a partnership with my chuch. Together we organized a coalition that brought the largest restaurant chain in the world to accept responsiblity for human rights abuses in their supply chain. More on how we did that coming soon...

  1. Welcome to Sister Solidarity, Amy! I look forward to hearing more about your struggle out on Long Island, a place most people associate with vacations and recreation.
