NEW: 50 co-op grocery store workers in upstate NY are unionizing with @SEIU @WorkersUnited.
ALT Pictured is a filing from the National Labor Relations Board website showing a petition for certification of a labor organization as the representative of a collective bargaining unit. The employer is Greenstar Cooperative located in Ithaca, New York. There are 50 employees in the proposed bargaining unit made up of centralized substitutes, team members, and assistant managers.
Based on this analysis I would say jezebel fits the bill for an EOT or worker coop buyout?

Very important chart showing how the decline of union power in the U.S. is linked to the big increase in America's income inequality

"Doing your job as a professor isn’t necessarily activism. But doing a good job in the classroom in terms of actually teaching anti-racist education, or making ideological interventions in the scholarship, all that is important labor, and they are contributions, they are stones."

This morning I'm thinking w @akapczynski's critique of "productivism" & narrow industrial policy as huge progressive wins. It's a new terrain of struggle; IRA hasn't yet unleashed full-speed climate policy, or reduced the corporate power that got us here.

Want to see a place where Black (and all) families have inter-generational stability and wealth? Build a Coop City in every council district.
A harrowing snapshot of why so many Black New Yorkers are leaving our city—lack of affordability being the #1 reason. My district alone has lost 20% of its Black population in the last 10 years, and I’m determined not to let that happen over the next 10. nytimes.com/2023/01/31/nyreg…
This article on approaches to economic management and the revival of the public sector in development deserves some (positive) scrutiny and study in the coop/economic democracy circles

This by @BuddyYakov and @nils_gilman is the strongest argument I've seen for the notion that the U.S. has sloughed off neoliberalism and adopted a new paradigm of economic governance. Highly recommend noemamag.com/the-designer-ec…
