Unions already protect SC Actors.
So why shouldn't a Union protect our Faculty, Facilitators and MD's as well?

This week, Second City Toronto opens their new permanent home.
As for Second City Hollywood - teachers have still heard nothing about a physical space in LA.

The only reason an Employer will oppose a Union is because it costs them Profit to meet their Workers halfway...
...Profit that is far too often gained at the Worker's expense.

If you have trouble remembering your worth because a toxic environment has chipped away at you, or people continually devalue your contributions, just remember this... YOU ARE AMAZING.

I may have left SC in my past, but I'm still super passionate about organized labor, especially at my former employers' 😏 So from this IATSE 15 worker & former SC Chicago employee, KEEP IT UP! ✊ #UnionStrong #NotWithoutHollywood #AICEUnity #AICEStrong

Before shows, an improv ensemble will often say to each other: "I've got your back."
We're asking that the Second City have our backs, the same way we've had theirs.

We teach the benefits of taking risks, by going 'Strong and Wrong'.
But when it comes to our contract, we Fight for what's Right.

Oh Football season's back? Because it's time to run this contract in for a touchdown so we can all celebrate with a collective endzone dance.

Comedy Ensemble:
A group of tightly knit folks who actively support and trust one another, as they collectively pursue joy, connection, and safety for all.
Union:
Ditto.

Bargaining a contract requires a strong skill set, including patience, creativity, empathy, resolve and adaptability. In other words, the exact skill set that we specialize in teaching.

If you're having trouble finding or asserting your voice in your workplace, that is not your fault. Blame the employer who created that environment and who chooses to sustain it.

If @TheSecondCity truly understood the nuanced nature of our jobs, they'd give us all we're asking for and more. We're negotiating against their greed *and* ignorance.

For us, unionizing wasn't just a labor decision. It's also the prioritization of humanity in our workplace.

Faculty and Facilitators know our students better than anyone else because we used to be those students.
Experienced voices should inform operational decisions, not a bottom line.

Accessibility should not be a factor that prevents someone from taking a class or workshop at our Training Centers.
