I’ve been a union organizer since 2021. I was the lead organizer for my union. I’ve confronted bosses, stood up to billionaires, organized strikes, planned workplace actions, faced retaliation, and helped grow class consciousness within the working class. We won union recognition in March 2024, and I was illegally fired in December 2024. The case to get my job back is still ongoing. I have stories, knowledge, strategy, and more, so ask me anything!

    Where’s the best place to get literature and legal advice? I want to organize the physicians I work with, but I would prefer to have support.

      Great question! SEIU is what you’re looking for, specifically the Doctors Council. You’re likely already familiar with SEIU, the nurses at your facility are probably already unionized with them.

      As for the legal stuff, you don’t need a law degree to become an expert in labor laws (just don’t go giving legal counsel). The NLRB website and your state Department of Labor are your friends.
