Social Justice Unionism

Social Justice Unionism is an approach to labor organizing that goes beyond traditional workplace issues like wages and benefits. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of labor rights with broader social issues such as racial justice, gender equality, and economic equity. This perspective recognizes that workers' struggles are linked to systemic inequalities affecting various communities. By advocating for inclusive policies and social change, Social Justice Unionism seeks to empower workers as well-rounded advocates for both workplace rights and societal improvements, fostering solidarity among diverse groups to achieve fairness and justice for all.
