There is new experimentation, organizing, leadership and energy that heralds real hope. For clues on labor’s future, we should look beyond the lagging indicator of the BLS union membership numbers to the front lines, in workplaces and in the streets.

“ - student learning conditions are teacher working conditions.
- benefits at work are the product of educators and other workers of past generations demanding them, and striking for them.
- We are the only ones with the power to win transformational change for the public education system. “

Stopping Trump will require more than neighbourhood mobilisations and a courageous civil society. Many called the combination of street protests, blockades and walkouts on the 23rd of January a ‘21st century general strike’.(24)
But without extending the strikes to large businesses, transport and warehouse logistics, Trump's troops cannot be stopped ?

“I didn't know what exhausted me
emotionally until that moment, and I
realized that the experience of being
a soldier, with unlimited license for
excess, excessive violence,
excessive sex, was a blueprint for
self-destruction. Because then I
began to wake up to the idea that
manhood, as passed onto me by my
father, my scoutmaster, my gym
instructor, my army sergeant, that
vision of manhood was a blueprint
for self-destruction and a lie, and
that was a burden that | was no
longer able to carry. It was too
difficult for me to be that hard.”

— Utah Phillips (1935-2008)
American folk singer and labor activist
