Sioux Falls AFL-CIO"No Union For Fascists": Why The Sioux Falls AFL-CIO Banned White SupremacistsEditors Note: In May of 2018 the Sioux Falls AFL-CIO passed several amendments to thier Constitution.

Or who consistently pursues policies and/or activites directed toward the purposes of any Fascist or otherwise White Supremacist Ideology."

Labor Notes · Kentucky Unions Stand Up to Halt Deportation of Two Hundred WorkersTwo hundred union workers, out of 5,700 who assemble dishwashers, refrigerators, washers, and dryers for GE Appliances-Haier at Appliance Park in Louisville, Kentucky, received notice this month that the Trump administration is revoking their work authorizations. The immigrant workers from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela have received a mixed reaction to their imminent deportation—hostility from some co-workers and an outpouring of support from their union and the local labor movement. They’re part of the Communications Workers’ industrial division, IUE-CWA Local 83761.

"What will it take to beat Amazon? Much more of what we’ve seen this past year, escalating to disruptive actions sustained over time and coordinated systematically on a global scale.

To get there, we will need union drives that embrace three principles: First, a class-struggle organising approach, recognizing that this is a fight between two opposing interests: Amazon workers, who demand the full fruits of their labor and rights at work, versus their bosses, who want to maximize profit and control. Second, the movement must be driven by bold, concrete demands that clarify what is at stake. Amazon workers have shown they will make extraordinary sacrifices if they are strongly motivated by the prospect of changing their lives. And third, there must be thorough and democratic shop-floor organising. There are no shortcuts to building the strength and resiliency necessary to withstand the blows of Amazon’s union busters.

This must be a coordinated, global effort."

Design Labor is Work. Workers Need Unions.

I'm glad to see conversations about design and labor multiply in design spaces and social media circles. Design professionals are often taught to see themselves as artists and not workers, which helps to keep designers from advocating collectively for better working conditions - a concept Marisa Cortright names "The Myth of the Calling". Read Cortright's essay "Death to the Calling: A Job in Architecture Is Still a Job" in Failed Architecture for more on this idea.
