Legendary Labor Organizer Jane McAlevey: One of Her Last Interviews on Strategies for Workers to Win
As part of our Labor Day special, we remember the longtime labor organizer and scholar Jane McAlevey, who died in July at the age of 59. She dedicated her life to empowering rank-and-file workers, training tens of thousands around the world to effectively strengthen their unions. She gave one of her last interviews to Democracy Now! in April after she announced she was entering hospice. “We like to win,” says McAlevey, “and we like to teach workers how to win. What are the methods? What is it we can do?”

Jane McAlevey - Rest In Power
"she cared about organizing (unions) because she cared about people and how miserable our lives have grown amid the decay of neoliberalism. She cared about making their—our—lives better in the here and now, not just in some far-off future."

Organize, Teach, Fight: Jane McAlevey, 1964-2024
Jane McAlevey was a friend and a comrade and I can’t believe she’s gone. After she won the battle against her cancer so many times over the past few years, up until the very end part of me thought she’d find a way to beat it yet again. As a mutual friend texted me yesterday, “Jane was like a superhero, it seemed like if anybody could defeat death, it was her.” Jane—organizer, writer, and teacher—will live on in the tens of thousands of organizers around the world committed to deep organizing methods.
