For centuries, the Southern economy has been a rigged game—a scheme designed to enrich a select few at the expense of the many. At Daimler Truck, Volkswagen and Mercedes, we’re building a new economic model in the South.
In our May issue cover story, auto workers reflected on missteps in past organizing drives (like making workers sign cards in tents away from the plant rather than having conversations on the shop floor) and what they're now doing differently: labornotes.org/2024/04/southe…

“Workers stand in full solidarity with this student movement” that’s RIGHT
New: 28 unions—representing tens of thousands of workers—are demanding "the immediate reinstatement of all student and student workers disciplined for pro-Palestine protests and the end to the repression of protest on Columbia’s campus." "An injury to one is an injury to all."

The UAW didn’t conduct house visits during the Volkswagen campaign because it wasn’t worth the backlash, plus workers had a strong in-plant presence on factory lines. The same is true at Mercedes. But the Mercedes management continues to lie. labornotes.org/2024/04/tennes…
