White Shirt Day

White Shirt Day honors the men and women who participated in the sitdown strike at General Motors in 1937. These autoworkers helped the UAW union to become the sole bargaining agent for General Motors autoworkers. The strike ended on February 11,1937.

Please wear a white shirt and honor UAW workers along with their accomplishments.
