New York (AFP) - In his colorful jacket emblazoned with the slogan "Eat the rich," Christian Smalls is accosted from all sides as he walks by the bus stop where he spent countless hours trying to convince Amazon employees to form a union. The president of the Amazon Labor Union (ALU), which caused a stir in early April by becoming the e-commerce giant's first union in the United States, walks the sidewalk he knows so well in a New York industrial area. He will soon learn if, after the win at the JFK8 warehouse, he has convinced employees of the sorting center located across the street, LDJ5, ...

The sun is not yet up, but the two organizers Steve and Syrena gamely wave their posters to catch the attention of night-shift workers pouring out of the huge facility and of day-side employees taking over on a foggy Saturday morning. In the glare of car headlights, one can read the words on their posters -- "Thanks for your courage!" -- ...

Birmingham (United States) (AFP) - Poor and conservative, the state of Alabama seemed like the perfect place for companies to do business without having to deal with labor unions. That is, until a handful of Amazon employees stood up to the world's richest person and demanded representation at the bargaining table. It comes to a head this week: Monday is the deadline for employees at an Amazon warehouse in Alabama to vote on establishing the first union on US soil at the massive tech company.
