Labor Action Week
We the working people
When we work together, changes are made for the betterment of Black workers. Working people standing together is a powerful force for positive change in workplaces across the country.
Join us as we shine a light on the fights, the victories, and the voices that keep our movement strong. Together, we will honor the dignity of work, demand policies that protect and empower workers, and inspire a new generation to carry the torch forward.
We the People Get Out the Vote
Our future is on the line. With so much at stake this election season, we need your voice and your time. Join us on September 8 at 7:30 PM ET to turn out voters all across the country and in your community.
Union leadership has traditionally been a man's world. Women are the backbone of policy, economic security and saving our democracy, and it is timely to have women leading in the workforce space.
- Robin Williams, Chairwoman, NAACP Labor Committee
