The #UAW Executive Board's #ceasefire call between Israel and Palestine is overshadowed by the groundbreaking proposal for a 'Divestment and Just Transition' working group. This initiative carries the potential to pivot US union workers, particularly in the UAW, from complicity in military production to a social justice-oriented labor practice. The concept of #moralinjury is suggested as a framework to assert such concerns as a mandatory subject of #collectivebargaining, utilizing existing legal structure, and without undermining the NLRA's scope.READ: https://lnkd.in/g3D7-kjr

Both texts illustrate the gap between corporate America's claims and their actions, highlighting an enduring resistance to #workerempowerment and #democraticsolutions in favor of maintaining their #power and #profits.READ:

This study argues that the rise of #financialization has profoundly reshaped the very industry that's unleashing it: it has become even more male-dominated and white. Financialization, argue the authors, is not a modernization process but a recombination of bureaucracy and neo-patrimonial logic.READ: https://lnkd.in/gGJAsG22

"Mr. Osborn’slong-shot bidto defeat Deb Fischer, Nebraska’s Republican senior senator, in November, or even come close, will test whether the rising power ofan energized union movementcan translate to high elective office during an election year when working class voters will likely decide the next president, and the direction of the country."READ: https://lnkd.in/gEBzHijE#elections2024 #union #workingclass #classstruggles #labor

The idea that we are entering an era of techno-feudalism that will be worse than capitalism is chilling and controversial. We asked former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis to elucidate this idea, explain how we got here, and map out some alternatives.READ: https://lnkd.in/gCgg_57N#capitalism #tech #siliconvalley #elites #billionaires #wealthinequality #economicinjustice #politicaleconomy #technofeudalism #classstruggles #rentiercapitalism
