Barnes & Noble workers continue contract push

Bloomington's Barnes & Noble workers, organized by the Retail, Wholesale & Department Store Union (AFL-CIO) are still negotiating for a first contract. On Friday, December 20 they called for a one-day boycott, turning over 80 shoppers away. Other unions stood with them to show support.
