One week ago, thousands of New Yorkers tried something new.
They heard about it last minute. They didn’t know where it would take them or who they would meet. It was free, earnest, even educational.
It was the #ZcavengerHunt and it was a thing of beauty.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.
