Nearly 50 people with the boycott rally bug came out today to brave the sunny, mid-40 degrees, balmy January weather. More than 20 did so as well yesterday!
For those of you keeping store at home there have been rallies outside of Golden Farm in 2011, 2012 and now in 2013…
Yesterday the Green Party crashed the Golden Farm sidewalk in solidarity with the Golden Farm workers:
And today allies left and left came out in full support and sang to Sonny Kim!
Struggles bring allies together and broad coalitions bring about change. Meet some of the members of the Golden Farm Justice Coalition:
(on left with sign) Mahoma Lopez, Hot and Crusty worker and activist: “Unionize Low Wage Workers, We Did It!”
99 Pickets brought people together:

New York Communities for Change was also there.
Occupy Staten Island, Occupy Sunset Park and if we forgot to mention anyone our apologies!
Most important of all, Kensington residents of all types were present supporting the workers. The message to Sonny was loud and clear:
Sonny Kim! No contract, no peace!
Kensington has got a fever and the only prescription is more boycott! (never gets old)
