Description
From the organizers:
Trump has declared open season on immigrants, LQBTQ+ folks, activists, and workers. The scale and breadth of his administration's attacks have left many people feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to fight back. But resistance is possible, and is starting to grow everywhere.
Organized workers are uniquely positioned to push back against these attacks. We have the power to bring the system to a halt through collective action. Join us as we hear from a variety of local union activists and discuss strategies for building a fighting resistance.
