Washington City

Protesting can be a lonely job.

Whole Foods Protest: The Video was originally published on City Desk on Aug. 21, 2009 at 6:04 p.m.

On Friday, in response to Whole Foods CEO John Mackey’s Wall Street Journal op-ed opposing single-payer health care and a public option, Single Payer Action and the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union picketed the P Street Whole Foods in Washington, D.C.

And "neatly, sweetly, and sweatily, making the lunch scene at 1440 P St. NW the most bucolic in the history of organic-food-store protests," they did.

City Paper was on the scene to interview the protesters.
