SHUTTING IT DOWN: UPS<br />
33<br />
“Hands Up, Don’t Ship”<br />
Full story <strong>at</strong> Labor Notes<br />
On August 22, a dozen parttime<br />
UPS workers in<br />
Minneapolis discovered ties<br />
between Missouri law<br />
enforcement and a company<br />
called Law Enforcement<br />
Targets, whose goods the<br />
workers handle. They<br />
removed packages from<br />
trucks and refused to ferry<br />
the packages to their<br />
trailers.<br />
“We encourage workers<br />
elsewhere, especially <strong>at</strong> UPS,<br />
to think about how their labor<br />
contributes to the situ<strong>at</strong>ion in<br />
Ferguson, and wh<strong>at</strong> we can<br />
do together to stand against<br />
it. And we want to help you<br />
make it happen.”
