BUFAJob security, fair pay, and benefits for contract faculty will deliver fairness for workers and protect the high‐quality education our students deserve. #Fairness4CF #MakeItFair
Too many contract faculty have to reapply for their jobs every term and don’t know if they will be teaching semester-to-semester or year-to-year. #Fairness4CF #MakeItFair
Contract academic staff have many names, but what they all have in common is a lack of job security and access to resources. Join the call for the fair treatment of contract academic staff. #MakeItFair #Fairness4CF

If you are a @societyofauthors member (like I am), and you were there to post about #MetaBookThieves (as I was), and you want to #MakeItFair and make Meta #DoTheWriteThing (as I absolutely do), give giovanh's essay a read.
> What’s being (rightfully!) objected to is a new kind of *labor issue.*

Lorna PeelMeta stole two of my books from a piracy site to train AI. I support the Society of Authors protest today and demand that Meta #DoTheWriteThing and compensate authors for the work they stole.
