BK campaign to escalate in upcoming months...

As we begin another year in the Struggle for Fair Food, we invite you to check out some of the highlights from the past 12 months - from the monumental victory in the McDonald's campaign to the escalating struggle with Burger King - by clicking here and scrolling up.

Also, check out this video from our March on Burger King this past November 30th:

Looking forward to January and beyond, things will continue to heat up in the Burger King campaign. The World Social Forum 2008 has put out a call for a global day of action on January 26, in which we'll be calling on people to hold protests at their local BK's. This will be followed by the United Students Against Sweatshops winter conference February 8-10 in Miami which will feature a huge protest outside BK headquarters; and we also look toward the 2008 Student Labor Week of Action and Farmworker Awareness Week, both taking place in late March/early April.
