In the latest skirmish in a year-and-a-half-long war for higher wages, fast food workers in the United States are staging a 150-city protest — and taking their fight overseas.
Fast food workers, in at least 33 countries and 80 cities on six continents, will join their U.S.-based counterparts for an expected 230 strikes and protests worldwide.
The strikes will occur from Seoul to San Salvador, Brussels to Bangkok, and Auckland to Casablanca.
Early in the day, the campaign's website,
FastFoodGlobal.org , showed photos of protesting workers in Hong Kong, Mumbai, Denmark and Bandung, Indonesia.
