Starbucks has fired seven employees who were leading an effort to unionize a Memphis, Tennessee, store

Starbucks ramped up its ongoing anti-union campaign on Tuesday, firing a group of union activists at a Memphis store. The firings happened through the day, hitting seven workers by early afternoon—around one-third of the workforce at the store. Workers seeking to unionize at that Memphis store were part of a powerful More Perfect Union video just last week, with a former manager at the store talking about how she quit in response to pressure to write up one of the worker-activists.

I asked for the proof and I was not given the proof.” Holden resigned in response, and her words are particularly interesting now that union organizing committee members are being fired. “I was fired by Starbucks today for ‘policies’ that I’ve never heard of and that I’ve never been written-up about before,” said shift supervisor Nikki Taylor in a statement . “This is a clear attempt by Starbucks to retaliate against those of us who are leading the union effort at our store and scare other partners.
