CIW Chipotle Protest @ U City Loop
Thursday, October 9, 11:30 a.m.
6310 Delmar - on the U City Loop
In a nutshell, the CIW and its allies across the country have already won campaigns against Taco Bell, McDonald's, Burger King and Whole Foods to get these huge corporations to take responsibility for the farmworker abuse and poverty (including actual cases of federally-prosecuted modern-day slavery) resulting from these corporations' high-volume, low-cost tomato purchasing practices.
For more than two years, we've called on Chipotle to do the same, and they've refused. Therefore, we're launching a national speaking tour this Tuesday and will be passing through St. Louis on that tour, on our way back to Florida after visiting Chipotle headquarters in Denver a couple days earlier.
