The slogan "Yo no quiero Taco Bell" was heard throughout
the streets of the business sector of Irvine in an organized protest against
Taco Bell Monday. The Coalition of Immokalee Workers, who are fighting for
better working and living conditions for the farmworkers who pick Taco Bell's
tomatoes, traveled in a bus from Immokalee, Fla., to Irvine, stopping and
picking up other supporters. The Bay Area organization Art and Revolution,
in collaboration with the coalition, used street theater to present the
death of justice and the consumer-driven nature of corporations such as
Taco Bell.
