Dozens of angry delivery workers and their supporters rallied in Lower Manhattan on Wednesday to denounce Grubhub’s recent decision to fire 50 of them and deactivate their accounts. 

The group, packed with app-delivery workers, elected officials, and immigrant rights groups, protested outside the headquarters of Wonder, Grubhub’s parent company, on Greenwich Street. They demanded answers as to why their delivery accounts were deactivated and called for them to be put “immediately” back in service.

As night fell, the shadows of detainees could be seen past the barbed wire fences and inside the building through the windows as they flicked the lights and appeared to jump up and down as they attempted to communicate with those outside on the outside, much to the delight of protesters who yelled to them through megaphones.
