Successful labor organizing in the United States expanded during the pandemic, with wins that were underscored by monumental wins in worker-led unionization and collective bargaining efforts made by workers at Amazon, Starbucks, and even here at NYU.
Join the Urban Democracy Lab for a panel discussion with leading labor organizers, including Chris Smalls (President, Amazon Labor Union), Arundathi Velamur (Organizer, NYU’s Graduate Student Union, GSOC), Judith Sloan (Gallatin Adjunct Faculty/member ACT UAW 7902), and representatives from Starbucks Workers United; Gianpaolo Baiocchi (Director, Urban Democracy Lab) will moderate.
