Economic Democracy Weekly

Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly begins with the second article in our series produced with Local Initiatives Support Coalition on how formerly incarcerated women in Louisiana are organizing to end mass incarceration. Next, two sex worker organizers with a mutual aid group in Rhode Island talk to us about prison abolition, labor rights, and decriminalization. We then feature the penultimate piece in our series with Bargaining for the Common Good on how a powerful union at Rutgers built a strong movement from the “new shop floor” of higher education—workers and residents affected by the corporatized university system. Finally, a powerful and moving essay by researcher Esther Choi on her personal and academic journey towards understanding the need for a solidarity economy.
