“Everyone has issues in their workplace; however, most of us wrongfully believe that these issues are individualized, or we believe they can’t be changed and so we overlook and minimize these issues.”

“[The organizers feel] having the support of a union will also help employees navigate potential federal changes to workers’ rights under President-elect Donald Trump’s new administration.”

This is what #solidarity looks like.

Jobsite action at Sheraton Hotel in #Boston resulted in BAC Local 3 MA/ME/NH/RI securing the work opposed to non-union contractors from Atlanta and North Carolina who were attempting to undercut community standards in the area.

I happened upon a small event on the quad at SMC honoring both #DoloresHuerta and #CesarChavez, who both have CA state holidays in their honor approaching.

Unbelievable that Huerta is nearing 95 years old and is still so active in the labor organizing community. #SiSePuede #LaborOrganizing
A group of folks gathering on a lawn outdoors at Santa Monica College to hear about the legacies of Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez. Various flags and banners adorn the lawn of the quad at Santa Monica College in honor of Cesar Chavez Day and Dolores Huerta Day, which are both happening in the next two weeks.

How Have Minnesota Workers Historically Resisted Fascism and Oppression? Minnesota’s labor history includes three notable instances of organized resistance against oppressive forces: **1. Teamsters Local 574’s Union Defense Guard (1938)** In response to the pro-Nazi Silver Shirts’ rise in Minneapolis, Teamsters Local 574 formed a multi-union defense group led by Indigenous veteran Ray Rainbolt. The guard used intelligence networks and combat training to disrupt Silver Shirt activities, including foiling a speech by leader William Dudley Pelley, who fled the city after their intervention[1]. **2. Immigrant Women in the 1916 Iron Range Strike** A spontaneous strike against U.S. Steel’s Oliver Mining Company saw immigrant women play a central role in resistance. Organized by the IWW, women defended parades from armed deputies, physically confronted guards denying water access, and faced media attacks for challenging gender norms. Despite the strike’s failure, their solidarity across ethnic lines highlighted militant opposition to corporate control[1]. **3. The People’s Pilgrimage (1937)** Unemployed workers, organized as the People’s Lobby, occupied Minnesota’s Capitol overnight to demand unemployment aid from Governor Elmer Benson’s blocked relief package. The peaceful sit-in involved speeches and songs, drawing national attention but failing to pass the legislation amid Republican opposition[1]. These efforts underscore Minnesota’s legacy of cross-community labor organizing against fascist, corporate, and political threats.
