Mickey Mouse arrested – Cinderella, Snow White, and Peter Pan too
Yes, you read the title write. Disney workers dressed up in their costumes were arrested yesterday during a union demonstration.
Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, Snow White, and Peter Pan were among 32 costumed protesters arrested in the hour-long march from one of three Disney-owned hotels at Disneyland in California.
Disney said it is in negotiations with the union and nothing has been finalized. The workers’ contract expired in February and their union says Disney’s latest proposal makes health care unaffordable and creates an unfair two-tier wage system.
Before the arrests, the picketers marched and chanted outside Paradise Pier, holding signs that read, ‘Disney is unfaithful,’ and ‘Mickey, shame on you.’
