Baristas vs Billionaires
An inspiring story of collective action against corporate
power and the emotional toll of the fight for dignity
and respect in the workplace.
​
Baristas vs Billionaires follows the fight of a handful of baristas for living wages and decent lives as they lead Starbucks Workers United (SWU) in strikes and protests against billionaire CEO Howard Schultz's scorched earth union-busting campaign, during which he has illegally fired more than 200 union organizers. But Schultz’s attempt to crush the union quickly backfires resulting in a single store’s pro-union vote in Buffalo, NY, mushrooming to 600+ union stores and 12,000 union workers.
This powerful investigative documentary explores the impact of wealth
concentration on America's working class.
