Miguel Symonds OrrDesign Labor is Work. Workers Need Unions.
I'm glad to see conversations about design and labor multiply in design spaces and social media circles. Design professionals are often taught to see themselves as artists and not workers, which helps to keep designers from advocating collectively for better working conditions - a concept Marisa Cortright names "The Myth of the Calling". Read Cortright's essay "Death to the Calling: A Job in Architecture Is Still a Job" in Failed Architecture for more on this idea. https://failedarchitecture.com/author/marisa-cortright/
