While this protest highlights the genuine sentiment of workers fighting for better conditions, it also exposes the limitations of protest tactics that focus on pressuring executives rather than confronting the profit system.

Last week, 11 Starbucks workers and supporters were arrested by Chicago police during a sit-in at one of the city’s earliest unionized Starbucks locations. The protest took place during Starbucks’ annual shareholder meeting.
