United Workers

Check-out the final video report from the March to Occupy GGP, a 4 mile march to the Inner Harbor led by low-wage workers on May 19th. Harbor workers, Raquel Rojas and Derrick Davis, narrate the video, taking us from the start of the march as we entered GGP’s Mondawmin Mall through Baltimore’s West side communities en route to the Inner Harbor. Derrick explains the history of repeated attempts by workers to bring GGP to the table, while Raquel speaks to the reality that workers face and the impact human rights would have on workers lives, “We are fighting so that we might have a change in our lives and for the future of our children.”

The video captures so many beautiful moments from this incredibly powerful action. Even for those who were there, watching the video can reveal moments that one might not have witnessed personally, but that came together to produce the experience of building community united around human rights values.
