stop and shop worker strike

In April 2019, union workers at New England locations of the Stop and Shop grocery chain went on strike. In my role running social media for an associate union, I documented the striking workers at various locations throughout Massachusetts.

see below for some samples of media from the strike:

"What do we want?"
"CONTRACT"
"When do we want it?"
"NOW!"

A little rain won't stop RWDSU from standing shoulder to shoulder with @UFCW members ON STRIKE at @StopandShop in Connecticut and throughout New England. No contract, no peace! #1u pic.twitter.com/kSQJdwdpcd
