Elizabeth Rhodes, a Durham driver in Kansas City, dedicated the following poem to her co-workers who will be voting in their Teamster election on February 24. She wrote this poem after being forced to attend a mandatory anti-union meeting by her Durham managers. This poem is for all the school bus workers who are standing united and demanding that they be treated with the dignity and respect that all human beings - that all school bus workers - deserve.
