The venerable Studs Terkel died 10 years ago this week, a good time to reflect back on some of his most powerful interviews. @StudsArchive @_projectand @Working_America vimeo.com/185770869
"...as the country finds new ways to earn and organize: the rise of non-traditional labor organizing groups, a legacy of resistance in prison strikes, and the dawn of driverless tech, among other developments." bit.ly/2QsqjOU #working
Now that Labor Day has passed, read the @NewYorker Sunday Reading on Working: bit.ly/2wJipZ9
"The first step to authoring liberating stories is to identify and examine the stories you tell yourself and others." Read @HarvardBiz article on chanding our own #workingstories ow.ly/VJXE30lCAmj
"@aijenpoo of the National Domestic Workers Alliance was upbeat: “I think we’re all committed to democratizing every dimension of society, including popular culture.” bit.ly/2PPpway
"For the nation's growing ranks of freelancers, there are no laws guaranteeing unemployment insurance, workers' compensation, paid time off or employer-provided health care." #gigeconomy #workinginamerica ow.ly/rgfN30lzEsf
"Unlike live-in nannies, however, au pairs have no guaranteed sick days or federal holidays. They earn a flat wage of $4.35 an hour after sponsor agencies deduct room and board from their pay, which lands them at $195.75 a week for 45 hours of work."prospect.org/article/big-bu… #work
