Take action, take power back from the corporate giants.

Today we say: Amazon, open the box and take responsibility for your supply chain ✋

Trump’s Tariffs Don’t Help Workers. Labor Solidarity Across Borders Does. Nike supply chain workers across Asia are joining with US labor to shift the balance of power.

'This fight is not about workers from one country providing charity to workers from another, it’s about workers recognizing their shared interest and shared destiny even as corporations and, too often, governments, attempt to divide them.' Exactly this.

What's tearing the world apart is corporate impunity. The lack of political will to end inequality. The lack of ambition to imagine and build another world where we all have enough to thrive and nobody has to get on a dinghy. This is what we need. Not a policy of stealing jewels from refugees.

Can Garment Factories Rise to Climate Change’s ‘Impossible Challenge’? The United Nations Environmental Programme warned that an overshoot of the 1.5-degree-Celsius warming limit is all but inevitable over the next decade.

With brands reluctant to absorb the shock, factories have been left to “bear the brunt,” passing the pressure onto the most vulnerable link in the system. The result is workers facing furloughs, layoffs and open-ended uncertainty. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

Why fandom organizing is a powerful strategy for movement building As the Disney/ABC boycott took off, youth activist group Get Free mobilized its “Andor” fan community to amp up the pressure.
