@mindyisser 🤣

@paul_prescod why don’t i know anything about you?

I'll be leading a reading group of "Rustin's Challenge" this summer. We'll meet every Tuesday night from July 21-August 24. Since it's a collection of essays, it's definitely fine if you can't make every session. Sign up here! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

@Jani__Gee Not humanity's finest week.

Between the snakes floating down the river, the bison flipping grandpa like a pancake, and this video we have clearly been catapulted into the cartoon timeline lmao

Israel has no respect for our sovereignty. Any administration with a shred of dignity would assert our interests. But apparently our political system is now designed to serve as their lapdogs.

The goal celebration of putting the ball under their shirt and sucking their thumb like a baby is truly disgusting. I get irrationally enraged when I see it. But like why is this a thing.

A construction worker and union rep cliff Johnson speaks about the partial column collapse in Midtown.

@fifimcfae @livestcks Somehow this is the most American thing anyone could wear.

@livestcks because i am wearing this hot dog slut shirt

why are you as an American NOT wearing red, white, or blue today

@drantbradley King was openly a democratic socialist. That's not even disputed.

The new Democratic Party, as a socialist party, claims to fight for the poor and the oppressed but you never seem the marginalized at their political events. It’s white college educated elites. Reminder: MLK was a staunch critic of socialism.

There is no way we can address the affordability crisis without strong unions. Period. Congrats to @UNITEHEREPhilly for winning $30/hr for hotel workers across downtown Philadelphia.

@mindyisser Got your ass.

my 3 year old said “what’s up, yogurt mouth” while i was eating yogurt. he’s so funny

@sunraysunray And black people disproportionately used and benefitted from GI Bill education benefits. jacobin.com/2023/04/gi-bil…

1/ The New Deal expanded and stabilized black industrial working class through mass unionization and later helped create reliable jobs through the expansion of public-sector employment, with far less arbitrary discrimination than in the private labor market. The shift of black voters into FDR coalition wasn't false consciousness. it reflected the tangible benefits of relief programs, public employment, labor protections, and industrial unionism. 2/ People often note that Social Security excluded agricultural and domestic workers as being racialized, but most excluded workers were white, and the exclusions reflected the political power of agricultural interests and limited state/admin capacity (not unique to the US). 3/ New Deal-era federal housing policy obviously reinforced segregation, and there's been well-warranted attention to that. But it's hard to see how that makes the New Deal project as a whole "anti-black," given the enormous gains it delivered through employment, labor rights, & social provision

Another great @labornotes conference! One highlight was the transit meeting, where Gerardo Hernandez from the union of transit workers in Mexico City spoke with transit workers from across the US. Labor Notes is great for making these cross-border connections.

Early morning @PennaNurses picket with nurses at Einstein hospital! Their contract expired May 1st and management is calling their proposals for safe staffing levels "junk."

Idk what's going on with the machine but this sample ballot was handed to me at my polling place. Stanford is, um, not running in my district...

They think the conductors make too much and the engineers make too much and the sanitation workers make too much and the teachers make too much but YOU - who sits on a laptop making Line Go Up - are totally safe. They'll never come after you. Promise

@mindyisser And imagine if we filmed people like him at their desk on their laptops how much time they're not actually working.

having electricians and other trades on staff, even if during the few minutes you walk by it looks like they're not working, is infinitely cheaper than contracting out everything they do

my husband is an electrician at SEPTA, on the regional rail. lighting is one of the biggest safety concerns of public transit, and if they didn't have union electricians on the payroll, it would end up costing tax payers a lot more!

@_pay30 🤣
