RIGHT, they don't have $ to pay #writers the LESS THAN 2% we ask for - which is fair since our work makes them insanely rich. This is INFURIATING. #writingcommunity.
So it's come to this: @WGAWest@WGAEast is on strike for the survival of writing as a profession. Show your support and join us. Picket locations below. #WGAStrong https://t.co/pbWBDSMEai
Behind-the-scenes workers are the heart of the entertainment industry.
Yet their work often goes unrecognized – and should be fairly compensated.
Living wages and humane working conditions must be the standard.
We must have dignity and respect for all.
Today & always, remember the fallen and those who loved them. Remember what it was they sacrificed for. And remember the need to protect it from the greedy delusions of craven demagogues who’d burn it all down if it meant more power or profit for them. (3/3)
And then there are those who take this sacrifice for granted, waxing patriotic while salivating for civil war. Claiming they need to destroy the Republic in order to save it in the ultimate betrayal of oaths sworn. Those treacherous snakes can go straight to hell. (2/3)
I struggle with Memorial Day. Stupid hot takes + brow-beatings from the holier-than-thous. Memories + knowledge that for too many it’s a reminder of a father, mother, wife, husband, son, daughter gone. Our shared obligation to make this nation worthy of their sacrifice. (1/3)
Incredible doc on PBS called Reconstruction: America After The Civil War. Really worth watching to understand what is happening NOW. And how we got here. Please, please check it out. It's free on the PBS app and online. #BlackLivesMatter#BlackOutTuesday
