COME AND OUT JOIN US THIS COMING THURSDAY & FRIDAY, July 13th and/or 14th!
THURSDAY NIGHT, July 13th, 7-8pm
ROC-NY is protesting in front of Restaurant Daniel, one of New York's
only 4-star restaurants, owned by Celebrity Chef Daniel Boloud, for
discrimination against workers of color. Latino and Bangladeshi
runners and waiters have filed charges at the EEOC for consistently
being passed over for promotions by less-experienced white workers.
We'll be there 7-8pm, at the corner of 65th and Park Ave., (F to
[Lexington Avenue stop at] 63rd or the #6 to Hunter College - 68th St.)
FRIDAY NIGHT, July 14th, 6-7:30pm
ROC-NY is protesting in front of Cafe Fiorello, owned by the same
company as the Redeye Grill, which has also allegedly been
misappropriating tips and not paying proper overtime wages. More than
50 current and former workers have organized against their employer.
We'll be in front of the restaurant from 6-7:30pm, which is on
Broadway between 63rd
and 64th St. (Any train [A, B, C, D] to 59th St. or the #1 to
66th-Lincoln Center).
PLEASE CALL US AT 212-343-1771 for more information!
