I think if a studio exec says they want to force you to starve to death so you’ll be made to accept garbage wages, you should crush them in a hydraulic press incredibly slowly

Like the fact that rich people have gotten to the point where they think they can just be like “oh yeah I’m literally trying to kill you” without fear of repercussions is beyond infuriating. They need to know what it feels like to be beaten to death by hammers.

UPS drivers making more money will help all workers make more money.

Labor united helps all labor. Rising wages is not zero sum.

Don't fall for 'divide and conquer' rhetoric from the Establishment. They fear the power and influence of worker solidarity.

something fun about unions? it's been a rough week

I don't know about fun but enjoy this nice United Auto Workers Mural by Walter Speck and Barbara Wilson.

The mural showcases several pivotal moments in the UAW’s formation, including the 1936-37 Flint Sit-Down Strike, the 1937 Battle of the Overpass at Ford Motor Co., as well as a painted rendering of Local 174’s first contract. Local 174, Walter Reuther’s home local commissioned this artwork, and others, to enliven their union hall and teach members about their history in the fight for working people. The artwork was long thought to have been created through the New Deal-era Work Projects Administration’s (WPA) Federal Art Project by Speck and Barbara Wilson, who would later become his wife. Speck, an influential member of the Detroit arts community, headed the WPA’s Detroit Art project, but it is unclear whether the UAW fully funded the work or if WPA funds were provided.

STRIKE while the iron is hot, so to speak

HOT STRIKE SUMMER CONTINUES

Since there's an interest in strikes and labor activities and whatnot, and people might want some books to read, here's a short list of books I have enjoyed:

Midnight in Vehicle City by Edward McClelland Reuther by Frank Cormier On a Clear Day You Can See General Motors by Patrick J Wright [DeLorean biography] There is Power in a Union by Philip Dray The Devil is Here in These Hills by James Green Which Side Are You On by Thomas Geoghegen Only One Thing Can Save Us by Thomas Geoghegen Strike! by Jeremy Brecher Blood Passion by Scott Martelle From Blackjacks to Briefcases by Robert Michael Smith The Blue Eagle At Work by Charles J Morris

The DeLorean biography isn't really labor related, but it is an interesting look inside a major corporation.

Most Americans don't realize that the Railway Labor Act (1926) is the earliest formal recognition of organized labor in the US, and that it predates the National Labor Relations Act (1935) by nine years. Before that, they just sent the national guard to shoot you in the head if you struck. But the rail workers kept striking anyway, so...

Solidarity Summer is well and truly ramping up. AS IT FUCKING SHOULD.
