We are overworked, underpaid, burned out, and seen as disposable by the people that profit from our labor. This is by design! But it doesn’t have to be that way. In this panel, we will discuss how we can change our work for the better by organizing in unions and worker cooperatives. We will have an open conversation about creating workplaces that put ownership, equity, and health first.
