If you're a freelance artist unsure about the #PROAct, please check out this thread by @MusicWorkers.

WAP stands unequivocally with the @AFLCIO, @CWAUnion, @IATSE, socialists in @DemSocialists & @CommunistsUSA, & workers across the U.S. fighting for this. We must #PassThePROAct!

[Music Workers Alliance @MusicWorkers]

MWA stands with the @AFLCIO in urging @senatedems @senschumer to pass the #PROAct. There’s been much confusion (and misinformation) about how the #PROAct would affect creative freelancers. Here’s a 🧵⬇️ on why we support the #PROAct *without amendments to the #ABCTest* 1/15

Join us for an art workshop & skillshare, led by shenby @/leftaesthetic on IG, for cultural workers, organizers, and artists to learn about agitation propaganda for class struggle and to build political posters to actively use in revolutionary organizing.

Socialists when they hear a dusty ass record with absolutely no low end where some extremely dead old guy plays acoustic guitar and sings about the dust bowl

[Tom Morello @tmorello]

You got it! My mom, 98 year old Mary Morello (a retired Illinois public high school teacher and veteran of union struggles) sends her solidarity & support as well. Hold the line!! @MFT59 #SolidarityForever

Unionized women earn 23% more hourly than those without a union.

That's the material difference unions like ours make.

[FairWageOnStage @FairWageOnStage]

The choice to send a popular Broadway property out on the road without union contracts for the stage managers and actors is a choice to maximize profits for the (already incredibly wealthy) rights holders on the backs of unprotected workers.

Shame on @BookofMormon.

[Communist Party USA @communistsusa]

We can’t end #BlackHistoryMonth without honoring the great African American poet for whom our Friday “Good Morning Revolution” show is named after.

Well, our tweet about @Studio_Theatre seems to have struck a nerve.

So tell us:

What's the most embarrassingly small amount you've been paid for your work by an Equity employer when they've chosen to hire you as a non-union worker?

[Workers Arts Project @workers_arts]

What's disgusting?? Union-busting!!!

The world needs more anticapitalist histories.

C.L.R. James told us - The only place where Black people did not revolt is in the pages of capitalist historians.
