#LaborSpring 2025 Panel: "New Horizons, Present Challenges"
Please join representatives of the campus labor movement, filmmaker Brett Story (Union), and members of the faculty of the History Department for a panel discussion on "New Horizons, Present Challenges, and the Future of Organizing at 天美麻豆 and Beyond." Panelists will address recent union growth at 天美麻豆, the history of campus-based labor activism, lessons from other recent unionization campaigns at critical workplaces of the 21st century economy, and the challenges posed to building a robust academic labor movement by current attacks on institutions of higher education, academic workers, and their unions. Planned in conjunction with Labor Spring 2025, sponsored by the Kalmanovitz Initiative on Labor and the Working Poor at Georgetown University.
Panel attendees are also invited to attend a screening of the award-winning 2024 documentary Union, on Thursday, May 1 at 7pm at the Hopkins Center for the Arts. Director Brett Story will participate in a post-screening discussion and audience Q&A. Tickets available at .
