A lot of people see the post-pandemic worker strikes and reinvigorated worker movement as chaotic and problematic. I see it as both inevitable and utterly necessary.
Go get 'em!

Does anyone else find it super weird that they're in the UAW? United Auto Workers???

Not necessarily. Fledgling unions often look for support from older, established unions when they form up. Typically, something somewhat related. So yeah, not a lot of similarity between teachers and factory workers. But, I can't imagine there is an existing union that would fit the bill.

Yep. When I was in grad school my union was part of the UAW umbrella. They were super helpful, especially since grad students don't stick around long enough to build the long-term organizing skills
