#WeWearRedOnThursdays #CWAStrong #UnionStrong #MissouriStateWorkersUnion #CWANextGen #CBTUUnder40Leaders #CBTU #APRI Movement rant…. Today i realized how much we need more spiritual and holistic practices in movement work, such as healing circles. We grind hard and focus on day to day life that this concrete jungle devours us mentally, spiritually, emotionally, socially and physically. Not everyone has mastered the art of decluttering their minds. This takes consistent mental exercise. Whether you do movement work or not, please take time to care for your mental health and check on your loved one’s mental health. not everyone wears their struggles on their sleeves. we have to keep this in mind as we fight for a sustainable future for ourselves and our youth. “It is our duty to fight for our freedom…” https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci0-qDGLfX0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Many young workers, both union and non union are waking up and smelling the good ole’ aroma of ORGANIZED LABOR! Power belongs to the workers who make all things in this country possible. From Amazon workers making sure you get your packages on time, postal workers, UPS workers, flight attendants, the many teachers and educators risking their health for poverty wages, the many nurses working around the clock to ensure the country stays healthy, the construction workers working in the worst climate conditions, the many janitors who are sanitizing your offices, the fast food and child care workers who make sure your workday and lunch is possible, electricians, carpenters, painters, longshoremen, federal and state government workers, farmers, technicians, machinists, and starbucks workers who all ensure products and services for your daily convenience. yet we’re still fighting for safety protections in the workplace, quality healthcare, a livable wage, the right to organize a union, fair contract negotiations, funding & resources for public education, to close the gender pay gap, sexual harassment in the workplace, women’s right to choose, discriminatory policies, the right to vote, TOTAL STUDENT LOAN DEBT FORGIVENESS, inclusive organization leadership and the list goes on. #KeepFighting #GiveEmHell #AllPowerToThePeople #BowingDownIsNotAnOption https://www.instagram.com/p/Chs13l-rqay/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#WeWearRedOnThursdays #CWALocal6355 #MissouriStateWorkersUnion #CWAStrong #UnionStrong #CWANextGen #CBTUUnder40Leaders #CBTU #APRI random labor thoughts: i don’t know how to stress how important these MIDTERM ELECTIONS are‼️I listened to some young people my age or younger debating about withholding your vote vs voting for Democrats. Let’s be crystal clear! If you think life for working families is a fight now, continue to entertain the thought of not voting and we will literally be in chains again. Voting is only a tool, OF MANY, to create the change we want to see for our children’s future. As with the other tools needed to push change, voting takes strategy. It takes a UNIFIED agenda around the issues we all face daily! Our future literally depends on our votes over the next few years. No candidate can succeed without the black and minority vote! Remember Millennials and Generation Z’s have the most voting power! Do some research. Connect with someone who you trust to have your best interests at heart and knows the political landscape of your community. but just not using your vote. we must have a better plan than that. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfum-BarbcB5pzi5G8ATip4v3E9g0sXLRlwrss0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#WeWearRedOnThursdays #CWAStrong #CWA #CWANextGen #UnionStrong #CBTU #CBTUUnder40Leaders #MissouriStateWorkersUnion #LaborForBlackLives #WorkingWhileBlack #BlackWorkersRising The Labor Movement, the right to negotiate for better working conditions, and organizing a union in your work place has always went hand and hand with the movement for black lives. History has proven this again and again, most recently with the formation of the Amazon Labor Union and Starbucks Workers United. We all know, or should know the story about the Brotherhood of Pullman Porters Union, from back in the day. Black workers still make up a low percentage of union membership, nationwide. Yet, Black and minority workers are the people on the frontlines and suffering the most. These corporations, conservative union busting organizations, and corrupt politicians continue to play cat and mouse with our survival! It’s not only well-being any longer, but our families survival. We must continue to show up in the streets, at politicians houses and workplaces, at the bargaining table, these shareholders meetings, these union meetings and most of all to the polls for the mid-term and general elections! We have to get our people educated, registered and to the polls by any means necessary! Keep organizing, keep fighting, join a union and bring someone with you, stand up for a decent paying, safe and fair workplace! in Solidarity! 💪🏾✊🏾 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cde36WEM2SGDTblobNNEI5ywUtc4if_6ZQzmBc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#WeWearRedOnThursdays #MissouriStateWorkersUnion #CWAStrong #CWALocal6355 #CWANextGen #CBTU #APRI #CBTUUnder40Leaders #WorkingWhileBlack #BlackWorkersRising #BlackLivesMatterToLabor After talking with legislators and state leadership i’m reminded why i’m in this fight. Very few are truly connected to the plight of working families and people living in poverty. then we question why people don’t vote. People are starting to see through the lies because they live the struggle every day! These laws and policies being used to control us become detrimental when you make decisions without input from the people doing the work or who are struggling to survive. Whether it’s women’s right to choose, the right to have a union and bargain for better working conditions to voting rights and the right to change the laws by initiative petitions, there are under constant attacks that go against the interests of working families by people in power. with that mouthful said, we have to use our vote for these midterms elections to show the people we pay with our hard earned tax dollars, that they will not continue to pull the wool over our eyes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CdMuyqJM4iKGIHwnDIOFF-V-bcrIlrXslckkDs0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
