In this session, Assistant Professor Lola Loustaunau will be joined by Tyler Daguerre, co‑founder of the Independent Organizing Network (I.O.N.), for a conversation highlighting grassroots worker organizing and new models of collective action beyond traditional union structures. Together, they will explore the challenges and strategies facing independent worker organizing today and reflect on what these efforts mean for the future of the labor movement.
Join us on the third Wednesday of every month at noon (CT) for the Labor Forward forum. At the forum, School for Workers faculty interview advocates of the labor/worker movement to highlight their important work, celebrate their progress, and learn from their unique experiences. The forum is free and pre-registration is required to receive the webinar link.
