2/2: Close to 80 people came together outside the Union Square Macy’s store to protest (post-9/11) discriminatory firings by Macy’s. On 9/27, a customer berated Alia Atawneh for being Palestinian. She says her managers then pulled her in for a meeting, where they interrogated her many questions about her views including questions about her take on the 9/11 attacks. A week later Alia was fired. She wants her job back and is considering legal action against Macy’s. The picketers were demanding that Macy's apologize, provide monetary compensation and rehire Alia Atawneh. Join a solidarity protest at the Macy's in Valley Fair Shopping Center on Sun, Feb 24 at noon. Details
