The Workers Solidarity Movement is helping to organise a picket of the Starbucks on Dame street in Dublin, at 2pm on Saturday 5th July in solidarity with the Global Day of Action called by Starbucks union organisers in Spain and the USA. The Union of Commercial and Hotel workers CNT-AIT in Sevilla, Spain along with the Grand Rapids Starbucks Workers Union (IWW) have announced a Global Day of Action scheduled for July 5th. The two groups are asking social organizations, unions, and individuals from around the world to promote and participate in this day of action. |

Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1Don't forget that Choice Ireland is protesting outside the WRC on Dorset Street from 1pm so feel free to drop up to us before this Starbucks protest if you're around town.
Best wishes,

the tactic should be to engage the public, confront power and express solidarity
(yes after we've done our homework)
got to break out of the subcultural bubble of the left
"there's a starbucks at Guatanamo, if you need more reasons to protest"
This isnt a protest against Starbucks, its a picket to get workers their jobs back. As long as there is a capitalism there will be places like starbucks. Winning workers struggles is how we build towards a world without capitalism.
I see there are at least two pickets this weekend in support of workers (Friday WSM picket in Dun Laoghaire?) does this reflect a change in tactics by the anarchists? Kind of impressive.

People will be meeting at noon at the front gate of Trinity to go leafleting workers in Starbucks around Dublin before the protest.
