DESCRIPTION:The Union of Independent, National and Democratic Farmworkers (SINDJA) 
 calls for all independent and autonomous boycott committees to unite for a 
 global day of action on November 19th. \n\nWe invite all families to 
 support the International Boycott against Driscoll's in solidarity with 
 farmworkers in San Quintín, México. \n\nIn the Unitied States, when you 
 sit down at your tables on Thanksgiving Day, we're asking you to please 
 think of the farmworkers in San Quintín, who work 12 to 15 hours a day for 
 as little as 6 US dollars in take-home pay. Meanwhile, Driscoll's is making 
 multiple millions in profits.\n\nDon't bring fruits harvested with 
 exploitation to your Thanksgiving tables, including Driscoll's-brand 
 strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries. The cheerful 
 Driscoll's labels and delightful promotions hide the following realities 
 that farmworkers face each day: \n\n* Conditions of modern day slavery\n* 
 Toxic pesticides\n* Child labor\n* No health insurance or health care\n* 
 Sexual assault of women and teens\n* Failure to provide work equipment\n* 
 Provision of non-potable, dirty, contaminated water\n* Threats and firings 
 directed towards workers who demand their rights\n\nWhen fruit is produced 
 like this it cannot be a delight. Happiness cannot exist without human 
 dignity. Join us and Boycott Driscoll's! Until they sign a collective 
 contract with San Quintín Farmworkers!\n
