Produce, pizza, and the power of a union: AllieMisch reports on the end of the Hunts Point Produce Market strike

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, speaking at the strike last week. Photo: Alexandria Misch Late on Saturday afternoon, as the sun was setting over the Bronx, Daniel Kane Jr., the president of Teamsters Local 202, reflected on his union’s victory. Workers at the Hunts Point Produce Market had gone on strike the week before demanding a raise. From the outside, the Teamsters had nothing left to bargain.

One employee reflected on the emotional aspect of the strike. “Before, I felt very looked down on, very disappointed,” he said. “I was optimistic that a deal would pull through.” He expressed a sense of content with the new contract coupled with concern over potential retaliation from supervisors for workers who participated in the strike.

“The first night AOC came, there were trailers of horses,” Frias continued, referencing Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “The police brought horses. Six of them.” She emphasized her disdain with each syllable. “The horses are out there in the fucking cold — not that animal rights are even on the mind right now. The horses were out there in tin cans, though ready to come out and trample some Black and brown folks. They never brought them out because she was here.

AOC AllieMisch Glad you were there making sure the police did misuse the horses to trample the strike line! Bummers that the police had the horses out there in that cold.

AOC AllieMisch Baldor Specialty Foods, their competitor, is a non union shop and showing signs of great growth and strength. Employees there refused the union. Union's increase the cost of everything and do not add additional value to the service, process, or product.

AOC AllieMisch great, let me know when they raise their prices, so poor people can't buy their products anymore.
