In follow-up to the June 28th hate-motivated stabbing on campus, the university hosted two community forums this past Monday. We think it was obvious to most who attended that the necessary work in healing, protecting and prevention will come from the community.

Marvin, a UPS Teamster & @804_local member is ready to strike @UPS for the most basic reason: to be treated like a human being at work. As @sagaftra begins their strike today, I’m proud to stand with these union members as they fight for a better future for all New Yorkers.

@LawAsaf and I had a great conversation with @jody_showdy about prison labour in Canada and the possibility of a union for prisoners. Check it out! #canlab #canpoli
Labour Intensive@Labintpod

In this clip @jordanlhouse and @LawAsaf discuss how prison labour is sold as rehabilitative, but is really a cost saving measure for correctional services. For the full episode: labourintensive.podbean.com/e/episode-6-so… Pick up their book at @fernpub

This is so powerful. Students are finishing university with TBC instead of grades and staff are still receiving punitive salary deductions. The bosses could have ended this dispute well before graduations. This is all on you, @UCEA1. #ucuRISING
