The voices of rebellion

The latest from Workday Magazine

Isabela’s newest story is an interview with writer and former autoworker and UAW representative Rob McKenzie: 3 Decades Ago, There Was a Deadly Attack on Mexican Autoworkers. Here’s What It Can Teach the U.S. Labor Movement Today. Isa’s review of El Golpe and its contents, which include a haunting, riveting investigation into political schemes and events surrounding radical labor and social movement solidarity across the U.S.-Mexico border, is timely as the UAW’s new president, Shawn Fain, plans to reform the union away from top-down hierarchy.

Sarah’s latest, Inside a Teamster Rebellion: This Is What Union Democracy Looks Like, profiles Tanner Fischer, the 26-year-old president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 90 in Des Moines, Iowa, who has been working for UPS since he was 18. The story is a look into a militant local gearing up for what is potentially going to be the largest strike against a single company in U.S. history. A contract between UPS and around 350,000 Teamsters is set to expire July 31.
