While Detroit's three major automakers have seen CEO pay increase
by a staggering 40% over the past four years, the workers on the
factory floors have received a meager 6% wage increase during the same
period. This stark disparity is unjust and unsustainable.
Dr. West, known for his decades-long history of advocating
for workers' rights across various sectors, starkly contrasts with the
duopoly that has historically prioritized the interests of mass
corporate donors and an oligarchy class, perpetuating a system that
enriches the few at the expense of the many.
Dr. West's mission is clear: to rally support for genuine
solidarity against corporate avarice that sacrifices the precious poor
and working people in the face of greedy bosses and profit-driven
owners. Symbolic gestures alone are insufficient; substantive
pro-worker policies are essential to rectify this injustice.
As Dr. West aptly says, "This is a worker-led strike that
recognizes record profits are not being distributed equitably. And we
can’t allow certain actors in the auto industry nor any lawmaker to
use the transition to electric vehicles as a cudgel. Any transition
must be just and equitable, and until that happens, this strike is
justified and righteous."
