Amazon workers are striking nationwide, aiming to disrupt Christmas profits and demand union recognition. They face intimidation from the company and police but remain united in their fight against exploitation and for better working conditions.
Comrades, I present this recap of the Amazon workers' strike.
The workers have strategically timed their strike to impact Amazon's Christmas profits (December 25 in the USA).
We urge our comrades, especially those in the USA, to discuss this workers' strike with your friends and family during the holiday season. Amazon workers request that you speak with your delivery couriers as well—inform them about the ongoing strikes and ask about their own working conditions. Simply put: spread word of the strike to everyone, particularly those with any connection to Amazon.
A new post with breaking updates will follow tomorrow.

The corporate media is taking Amazon’s side, but Teamsters President Sean O’Brien is taking none of it. The mainstream media won’t talk about the struggle of Amazon workers and why they’re striking against the corporate giant, so we’re going to hear the workers share the truth with the world.
