This Thursday, 8/20, starting at 12 noon, workers, students & community members will picket
in support of a woman of color with a disability, under attack by the
world's richest university. Please join us! We'll meet at 1350 Mass. Ave., Cambridge (Harvard Sq T, next to Au Bon Pain).
Background: After she took a disability leave, Harvard employee Patricia was hit with unfair production quotas and work rules, then slammed with a verbal and written warning. The only African American in her department, Patricia endures micro-management and constant criticism, while colleagues enjoy flexibility and autonomy. Passed over for promotion and set up to be fired, Patricia is suing Harvard for discrimination on the basis of race, color, gender, disability, failure to hire and retaliation. She is a dedicated cataloger with 13+ years of service. Let's all rally around Patricia!
