Dear AFT 2121 members,
Join your higher education colleagues around the nation at Higher Education Labor United’s (HELU) first Winter Summit, taking place virtually February 23-27.
“The summit will focus on three core tasks: coordinating the surge of higher education worker organizing across the country, developing federal policy proposals to reverse the trends that have damaged higher education over the last several decades, and engaging in the political process by educating politicians and candidates on these issues and working to support those who will advance a program of democratizing higher education.”
Some featured speakers are: contingent faculty activists and authors Joe Berry (of CCSF) and Helena Worthen, activist and author Naomi Klein, union organizer and author Jane McAlevey, Chicago Teachers Union Vice-President Stacy Davis Gates, Jobs With Justice executive director Erica Smiley, and more.
