Community delegation and union organizers showed up in a nonviolent effort to support the striking hotel workers at the Double Tree hotel in Downtown #LosAngeles on Friday, August 25.

The general manager who met the group in the lobby responded "no" to most of the community's list of demands for the workers. Also kept trying to put the blame for lack of a deal on the workers, who won't come to the table if a reasonable (keyword reasonable) offer is given.

Everyone deserves to be able to live where they work. No one should have to commute hours back and forth, or sleep in their car during the week, then come to work to scrub or cook for a bunch of rich ungrateful people! Is it really that difficult to pay your workers a living wage?
