Kellogg Battle Creek BCTGM Local 3g striker Donovan Williams spoke about their strike for equal pay and justice on December 11, 2021 at UAW Local 5 in South Bend, Indiana. He reported on the fight against two tier and the rejection of their latest contract proposal by the 1400 workers throughout the country. Their fight against two tier wage system and equal pay for the same work he reported is a fundamental issue. The multi-national company has also said it will bring in replacement workers or scabs to break the national strike. The factories are located at Battle Creek, Michigan; Omaha, Nebraska; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; and Memphis, Tennessee.

A sharp salute to Brother Williams for his and his brothers and sisters struggles to eliminate the two-tier wage system @Kellogg's. Bringing the issue to the UAW local is very significant in that the UAW bureaucrats allowed the two-tier system into their union to appease the bosses rather than making a stand against it. The two-tier system rewards the bosses and weakens and divides the unions. Victory to the BCTGM strikers @Kellogg's. Boycott Kellogg's until they sign a contract approved by the rank and file.
