As the Wendy's Boycott swells with growing support, the CIW is ready to to go "Behind the Braids" and take the truth behind Wendy's façade of social responsibility on the road this fall! 

In a series of six regional tours, CIW farmworkers will join hundreds upon hundreds of consumer allies for powerful actions, film screenings, presentations, workshops, and interviews in nearly two dozen cities nationwide and grow commitment to the Wendy's Boycott. Then, on Nov. 11-13, people across the Fair Food Nation will come together for a national weekend of action to make sure Wendy's understands that workers and consumers won't let up as long as the retailer continues to sweep its responsibility under the rug.

Check out the schedule and map below for the “Behind the Braids” national fall mobilization. If we're stopping near you or you'd like to participate in the weekend of action, e-mail organize@allianceforfairfood.org to bring the Wendy's Boycott to your campus, congregation or community!
