The
other week I was picking up some envelopes from a Staples near me, and I was
wearing my union t-shirt from the Scott Walker protests, which is bright red
with a blue fist in the shape of Wisconsin on the front and “STAND WITH WISCONSIN”
in caps on the back.
As I was
leaving my register, a(n older) (white) woman at the opposite register to which
I had my back was like, “Hey, what’s your t-shirt?”.
I walked
over and showed her, and she complimented it.
She then
said something about how she just had started working there, and we both talked a
very little bit about how unions needed to step up and fight more since the
working class was getting fucked.
To close
the conversation, we fistbumped, then I left.
