Gallery of Pics from the Marches for Low-Wage Workers in Kansas City
There was a day of strikes, protests and marches in Kansas City Thursday. The movement was originally started for fast-food workers in 2013; since then, janitors, child-care workers, hospital workers and even adjunct professors have joined the movement.
There are protests going on in 300 US cities and 40 countries. The demands are the same:
- A decent, living wage - $15 in the US,
- The right to unionize,
- Affordable child care.
