VIRTUAL SIT-IN FOR A LIVING WAGE SCHEDULED FOR MAY 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th; 10:25AM-NOON AND 10:25PM-MIDNIGHT
Why a Virtual Sit-In?
-To support the demand for a Living Wage of $10.25/hr for all Harvard University employees, -To add the sudden invisible weight of our virtual bodies to that of the flesh bodies of nearly 40 students who have been occupying Harvard administrative offices for over a week, -To send a message to Harvard University that we will not stop until a Living Wage exists for all Harvard employees, -To demonstrate to the University and the Harvard Corporation, and to all Universities and Corporations, that our power of collective action is stronger than their power of greed.
The Virtual Sit-In will take place between the hours of 10:25AM and noon, as well as between 10:25PM and midnight, on May 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. During these times, please join the Virtual Sit-In for a Living Wage simply by pointing your browser to: http://209.192.192.125/action/virtual_sit_in_info.html
Join us in an act of electronic civil disobedience, as thousands of data bodies occupy the Harvard University Human Resources website (www.workingatharvard.org) with requests for the nonexistent pages:
/living_wage
/10.25/hr
