” Many had purple t-shirts with “Organizing for America” in white letters on the back and large “SEIU,” smaller “Service Employees International Union” on the front."
He the union protester shouted at me, “What kind of nigger are you?!” Then, he grabbed my board, so I quickly grabbed it back, then the man punched me in the face and charged at me . I put my hands up to block the second blow from the large man, when two other people from that group grabbed me and threw me to the ground and started punching and kicking me. I was kicked in the head and in the back, legs and buttocks. Then a white woman ran up to me while I was on the ground and began kicking me in my head as well.

Service Employees International Union. The purple people. The second-largest union in the entire United States of America. They cover some 2 million nurses, med techs, service workers, grad workers, custodians, security officers, etc. They are behind the Fight for Fifteen campaign. They have their highest concentration on the East and West Coasts with some in the bigger cities around the country.
The Atlanta airport custodial workers are unionized with SEIU and got a raise in 2022. That's good but they still need to go harder next year.
