Great article by @JulianneMcShane featuring our Advisory Board member. We must actively work to improve the working conditions for BIPOC women caregivers.

YES❗️Care work is not unskilled, it's undervalued by structurally racist and sexist economic systems. Thanks for lifting up this discrepancy 🙌

Great piece by @BrigidSchulte & Cassandra Robertson of @newamerica that really brings home the critical role unions can play in improving the quality of #carejobs for both workers & their clients. @seiu775 @HCAPinc #wkdev

We should still invest in training because like so many things we’ve shifted onto workers it’s actually a public good that we should pay for, but it’s no substitute for ensuring that all workers - training or not - have good jobs that pay well and offer basic protections

I wrote this in 2018 but it’s evergreen, and especially true in a weak labor market recovering from a pandemic and recession. It’s always, always about *power* https://t.co/3jeHSgBfsx

I FINALLY got to read this @AnnieLowrey piece and HEAR, HEAR: “The problem lies not with American workers, but with American jobs and American policy infrastructure.”
Say it, @AnnieLowrey!! cc: @WSpriggs The term ”low-skill” actually ”positions American workers as being the problem, rather than American labor standards, racism and sexism, and social and educational infrastructure.”

“It is a cancerous little phrase, low-skill. As the pandemic ends and the economy reopens, we need to leave it behind.”
"The term 'low-skill' as we use it is often derogatory, a socially sanctioned slur Davos types casually lob at millions of American workers, disproportionately Black and Latino, immigrant, and low-income workers," @AnnieLowrey writes:

Grateful for all the caregivers and volunteers at the @fema community vaccination center in @CityofNewarkNJ @NJIT. Was told 6000+ doses administered today.
With this morning's announcement that we're standing up community vaccination centers in Boston, MA; Norfolk, VA; and Newark, NJ, we are now up to 25 federally-run mass vaccine sites -- one component of our efforts to make sure vaccines are distributed effectively and equitably.

'Who do they trust? It’s their union.’ Organized labor steps in to convince immigrant workers to get vaccines - POLITICO

Failure to effectively inoculate this population could exacerbate racial health inequities and jeopardize the country’s recovery, public health experts warn.

Have consistently witnessed workforce org’s tie themselves into knots to avoid dealing with workers’ rights, power differentials, labor etc. A reckoning that moves beyond incorrect narratives, variations on the same ineffective "solutions" & false binaries is way past due.
For several years, @ReWorktheBay has sought to model what a truly worker-centered approach to workforce development giving might look like. Here’s how it wants to evolve a creaky workforce system in the face of rapid change. @PhilipRojc reports: https://t.co/dzDno9hqfC

Centering Black women in our policy response to this crisis - and *always* - will allow us to "enact an inclusive, more expansive recovery for EVERYONE. One that is rooted in abundance, public investment & the collective good." 🗣️🗣️@kendrabozarth on #blackwomenbest -- watch now:
We are the economy. Black women are the economy. Our economic policies and government spending should reflect that. @kendrabozarth explains how #BlackWomenBest advances a more inclusive, more equitable economy that works for all of us. #WomensHistoryMonth Watch & share 📽️
