Meet the defiant library workers waging one of the region's longest strikes ever
by Anne Jarvis, Windsor Star
“…Wightman celebrated her 50th birthday on the picket line. Someone else celebrated a wedding anniversary; her husband joined her. At least one member lost her mother. Another lost an aunt.
The strike has been one of the toughest things many of these people have ever done.
Neumiller, who has two young children, pickets three times as many hours as she works — for less pay. One woman collapsed from heat stroke last summer. Now, ‘it’s pretty flippin’ cold out there,’ said Johnson. They all got glove warmers last week.”
