The World We Live In - at Tyson Foods
American traditions are slipping away...
At WorldNetDaily.com, Bob Unruh reports:
"Food workers at the Shelbyville, Tenn., plant for Tyson Foods, which boasts on its corporate website that it strives 'to honor God,' will have time off for Eid al-Fitr, the Muslim holiday closing the month of Ramadan, instead of the American tradition Labor Day.
Officials with the company told WND the labor union representing the 1,200 plant workers, including about 700 immigrants from Somalia who largely are Muslim, sought the holiday change in the new five-year contract, and the company agreed."
