UFW: Boycott Trader Joe's Wine!

A farmworker, Maria Isabel Jimenez, recently died in of dehydration and heatstroke while picking grapes for a company co-owned by the same person who owns Charles Shaw Winery, which produces what is popularly known as "Two Buck Chuck", exclusively sold at Trader Joe's. Neither Charles Shaw nor Trader Joe's is willing to accept any responsibility for what happened.

If you DO shop at Trader Joe's, I hope you will boycott their wine (or maybe just boycott them in general) AND complain to their store managers and employees about this cruel exploitation of human beings. Let them know that people in their stores are aware of their violent negligence and disregard for their subcontracted workers.

Please see the United Farm Workers' website for more information.
