Thank you @hyperallergic for sharing our contract fight at @UArts. We agree with Admin: “negotiations with the faculty union’s bargaining team have taken an unfortunately long time.” Prez @davidyager will you do something about it before you leave??
The workers who actually execute @audubonsociety’s mission to protect birds and the places they need deserve a fair contract and better workplace. Tell CEO @DrElizabethGray, aka the 5th-highest paid leader of an environmental group, to stop union busting. https://t.co/N4XfNd7uvk
Another day, another missed opportunity for @audubonsociety to get back to us with any of our SEVENTEEN proposals that they’ve been sitting on. They’re intentionally dragging out the bargaining process.

According to MIT's Living Wage Calculator, a living wage in NYC in 2023 is $25.65/hr or $53,300/yr. @FilmForumNYC currently pays as little as $15/hr for theater staff and $37,000/yr for full time admin staff.
WE CANNOT MAKE ENDS MEET WITH THESE LOW WAGES!!
TWO years is TOO long without a #UArtsUnion contract for @UArts faculty! Join us for a RALLY on 3/1 to show Prez @davidyager he needs to leave this University better than he found it! RSVP here or just show up! https://t.co/MsxLeqzRQp
today, Harper Collins workers return to work under a new contract. in recent weeks, both Macmillan and Hachette raised starting salaries. solidarity makes everything better for everyone. congratulations to all at @hcpunion!
🎵 Everything will be all right if
we just keep marching on day 22 🎶 I bet @taylorswift13 would support the 2nd largest US book publisher increasing their NYC entry wages from $45k-50k 👀
You heard it here first: We have countersigned a tentative agreement and the strike is ending.
Stay tuned for the official joint statement from part-time faculty and New School management.
We look forward to returning to our students.
For any of you that thought the academy was some sacrosanct space to idle about & contemplate the meaning of life, pls wake the fuck up. It is a workplace with bosses and workers. This flex is about power and their efforts to break the will of the workers on campus.
.@mckenziewark on the current strike of faculty at the New School.
"We need either to be led in a different way, or different leadership. It’s as simple as that."
