Starbucks Workers United have called on the Memphis community to support a protest of Starbucks after seven employees who were part of a union organizing committee were fired last week.

Employees at five more Starbucks coffee shops in Virginia — including four in the Richmond region — are seeking to unionize amidst a nationwide campaign to organize labor at one of the country’s biggest retail chains.
