Kicking off Striketober by standing with PMA_Union

With the climate crisis, it's all about urgency *and* agency. Props to @FossilFreePenn for the important work that they are doing!

Also, nice to see Philly leading by example on this. A lot of great coalitional work going on here right now, from Save the UC Townhomes to PoliceFreePenn: An Abolitionist Assembly to Fossil Free Penn to PMA_Union. 💜 to you all in your struggles (& committment to broader solidarity) x.com/PMA_Union/stat…

The GETUP-UAW Local 5124 rally yesterday was awesome! So beautiful seeing the Penn union movement grow and celebrating decades of grad worker organizing. Honored to give a speech and be represented at the rally by our bargaining committee member Lu!

Penn says that we don't need a union because we can join student groups like GAPSA and SASGov, instead. But the reality is that these avenues are largely powerless against Penn's unilateral decisions over our working conditions. Here's what else they left out.

Will faculty allow ourselves to be used in an anti-union campaign against students workers in GETUP-UAW & UnitedRAsatPenn? We say no—and rebut Penn’s favorite law firm’s stale anti-union talking points thedp.com/article/2023/0…

BREAKING: Today at 9:30 a.m., a local community activist — Abdul-Aliy Muhammad — hosted a press conference outside of Penn Museum, where they said there is new evidence that staff continues to hold additional remains of MOVE bombing victims.

After the press conference, Muhammad entered the museum, demanding more information about the extent of the remains. They are still in the building, and Penn Police have entered the museum. Story to follow.

Tell Penn Museum to #ReturnDelisha

Philly folks - Please r/t and head to the Penn Museum to support 𝘢𝘈𝘭𝘪𝘺. Museum folks - This is our legacy. It cannot continue. American Alliance of Museums ICOM United States what do you say? #ReturnDelisha #MuseumsAreNotNeutral

Hey American Alliance of Museums according to your website Penn Museum is listed as "Accredited" and has taken a "Pledge of Excellence." How does detaining Dr. Lyra D. Monteiro (she/zie) is not leaving. and 𝘢𝘈𝘭𝘪𝘺. over the remains of children in Penn's collection reflect your Code of Ethics and "Continuum of Excellence"?

Today, Penn Faculty for Justice in Palestine, Huda Fakhreddine and Eve Troutt Powell have filed a motion to stop Penn from handing in documents to the Committee on Education and the Workforce. This is the new McCarthyism. The witchhunt has to stop.
