Restaurant workers demand justice

A protest was organized in front of Liberato Restaurant in the Bronx, N.Y., on June 10. Workers employed at the restaurant explained a number of grievances, including not being paid a minimum wage, not getting overtime pay, working in an unsafe environment, sexual harassment by male managers and their tips being misappropriated. Community and political activists have been handing out leaflets on Tuesdays and Thursdays, during lunchtime and dinnertime, explaining the workers’ grievances for the past few weeks. The protest was covered by News One and Channel 12 News in the Bronx.
