The rally included many short speeches from workers, uinon officials, and other community activists standing in solidarity. A primary issue being emphasized in public outreach is worker safety issues, including violent attacks, something that BART management has apparently been ignoring. More updated strike information can be found on the SEIU 1021 website.
