Jesse Williams Instagram – 💪🏽 Solidarity with labor, period. Workers united can halt operations in a multi-billion-dollar industry because they are necessary. If they are necessary, they have value. If they have value, they should have an unobstructed view of that value: transparency re: the fruits of their labor and the ability to negotiate fair compensation reflecting that value.
Only 5-15% of our union members earn the annual $26,470 needed to qualify for health care. So 85-95% of us earn less than $26,470 a year. @Variety estimates that only 2 percent of the union’s membership “safely earn a middle class wage…” This is about the working class, not the wealthy.
Hold fast and fairly. 🪧
