Faculty Statement about the Continuing Strike

to add your name, please contact giovanna pompele at gpompele@gmail.com.

We, the faculty of the University of Miami, understand and appreciate the gravity of the step taken by Unicco workers, and UM students on their behalf, in initiating a hunger strike on Wednesday, April 5.

At this crucial time, with the negotiations hosted by the University ongoing, we would like to express our complete solidarity with the striking workers in their pursuit of a living wage, health insurance, and the right to organize by a lawful method of their choice.
