Russell Athletic, a producer of UW logo apparel, recently shuttered its Jerzees de Honduras factory in response to efforts by workers to negotiate better wages and improved working conditions, leaving 1,800 workers jobless. This evening two workers from this factory come to Madison to share their story. Attendees can show their solidarity with workers who sew Bucky Badger clothing and learn how to support their organizing.
