An update from UAW 2865 bargaining team member Jess Banks, at a rally yesterday at UC Berkeley. Our organizing has already led to some progress, but there is still a ways to go toward fair contracts!
The latest: UC told us they will not be bargaining today.

I'm back with another thread! This time, we'll be looking at an important essay by Sylvia Wynter. In my estimation, no thinker has done more with and *for* the essay form than Wynter: an actress, dancer, playwright, novelist, writer, and towering intellectual.

A girls' school in Iran brought a member of the IRGC-run Basij paramilitary to speak to students. The girls welcomed the speaker by taking off their headscarves & chanting "get lost, Basiji".
Teenage girls have been at the forefront of protests for days.
