“Too many union leaders rely on staying in the good graces of Democratic Party leadership to maintain power because it’s easier than building enough muscle and engagement among rank-and-file members to enforce power in the old-fashioned way: through collective action.”

Kaleb's death has caved in my hope. The more shock I see people express at his poverty, the more clear it is that he was killed by this country, by the wealthy few, starved, for the threat of his words.
His shadow goes on for days and days.
