As I slowly move away from Twitter, I’m finding that anytime I make a speech and someone records, they actually make for some good TikTok videos.  
I’m still a novice at creating videos and don’t have a social media team behind me, just me and my 6 yr old 😂. Dropping my TikTok and Instagram handles so you can follow this solidarity journey! #Solidarity #UnionStrong #TikTok #Instagram #DigitalOrganizing

I was in the same union hall in Birmingham the day Jennifer Bates testified before Congress about Amazon’s union busting campaign in Bessemer. Since then, I’ve been such a supporter of her work for others. I saw you last on Labor Day.

“There’s a whole lot of energy and effort out there. But the labor movement still needs to figure out how to keep up the momentum—and figure out how to do more to support all the young workers seeking to unionize some of America’s best-known companies.” - Steven Greenhouse

The wave of French worker strikes against the government’s unpopular pension reform plans has been a fight unionists around the world have been glued to since it began. We are hopeful the workers successfully stop the retirement age from being raised any further. Maximillian Alvarez of @therealnews inspired me to record a message in solidarity for our French counterparts.

We stand in Solidarity with the French workers! ✊🏾🔥 #FrenchStrike #Solidarity #UnionStrong
