This was a really good talk between @kimkelly.bsky.social and @ericblanc.bsky.social about his book We Are the Union: How Worker-to-Worker Organizing is Revitalizing Labor and Winning Big.

I want to touch on something in the book that really stood out to me and I think was present in a bunch of the campaigns that you've mentioned, from the Amazon Labor Union to Starbucks, and that’s the importance of fun and of socializing. Can you speak more about the joy of coming together with your co-workers and how it fits into this model more broadly? I think that the joy piece is especially important in worker-to–worker organizing because if you are going to organize without much staff support, it really does take up a lot of time and at times can be a slog. Labor organizing is often a lot of one-on-one conversations with co-workers; it isn’t always the exciting things like striking. But precisely because there are all these really hard parts, you do need some fun to keep up momentum and to sustain you. And oftentimes you need to socialize with your coworkers because in today’s conditions — unlike a century ago — people are much more atomized and we don’t necessarily know our co-workers, and go out for drinks with them after work, or go to the same church or whatever. So building that personal relationship — doing a potluck, playing video games together, whatever — it does really make a big difference. And when you have those relationships, it’s far easier to get everyone on the same page to fight the boss.
