Background: On November 5, a delegation of 100 restaurant workers and supporters delivered a letter to the management of Andiamo Dearborn demanding a meeting with a group of employees who are seeking compensation for repeated unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, and other improper wage deductions, as well as racial, national origin, and gender discrimination in job assignments. The management failed to respond, and on Friday, November 20, ROC-MI organized a protest outside Andiamo during dinner service. The next day, management fired one of the employees involved in the protest.
