When Communicating, Become An Organizer

All union people should become an organizer when speaking to other working non-union people. For example, one of the most common misconceptions being said by non-union workers say is that they don’t want to pay dues to a union. This ignorance is why communication skills are so important. This person has bought into the misinformation that dues are used to promote the union and not for the workers’ retirement. One thing to keep in mind when speaking to other workers is the basic differences between the leader and the organizer. The leader goes on to build power to fulfill his or hers desires, to hold and wield the power for the purposes for both social and personal. He or she wants power for themselves. The organizer finds their goal in creation of power for others to use for their benefit. The organizer must be good at communication and be able to communicate with others, which takes place when the other person understands what you’re trying to get across to them if they don’t understand then you are not communicating for their comprehension and should look for another strategy. People only understand things or concepts in the terms of their experiences. Communicating is a two-way process. If you try to get your ideas across to others without factoring in what they have to say to you, you can forget about the whole encounter. I am a union man and I will always be a union man for if I was to change I would be making a whore of my soul and work life. I hope all union people feel the same for to see our unions we have to have SOLIDARITY.

GOP Doesn't Support Unions

It’s time for all union members to get rid of the union members and leaders who support the GOP and its Right to Work agenda. Trump, billionaires, the GOP, and the corporate people all hate unions and any union member who votes for these GOP candidates are just scabs who are not only riding on the backs of good hard working union people but also they are dragging their feet to keep the unions from moving forward. If these so called union people cannot see their way to vote and support people who fight and support unions then they should not vote or just get the hell out of our union labor because you are killing us by your foot dragging interference. All of our union people need to understand this is an ‘us against them’ situation and Trump and his anti union corporations are not your friend and if a union person thinks they are you are dumber than a post. Trump and the corporations do not care at all about you or your family. Once they have your vote you’re of no use to them. Trump’s ...

Unions Expand or Face Extinction

In 2026 unions worldwide must educate and expand their memberships or face certain death. We need to educate our workers to understand that the republican party does not care about, does not deserve their support or votes and only cares about the billionaires. The GOP is their enemy and not their friends. The GOP and billionaires are the workers’ enemy. They want the workers’ sweat and blood for as cheap as they can get it. These greedy people and their insatiable appetite for more leaving us with much less will not stop until we’re forced to work for scraps and fighting each other for the pittance. They will not invite you to golf with them or go hunting or to dinner with them. In fact, they are always in pursuit of ways to destroy our unions and the way of life we’ve obtain by being union. One way they are doing this is to use the court system, especially the lop-sided Supreme Court, to take away our union rights and to get more states to vote for The Right to Work, which leaves work...

They'll Be Coming For All Of Us

Yes, they are coming for us. Workers need to have one another’s backs because no one else will. Neither the broader labor movement nor the Democratic party are prepared to meet the urgency of this moment. So it’s going to fall upon the rest of us to mount a real resistance against Trump’s authoritarian takeover. We’re going to have to get our hands dirty. I don’t care if you have a good, well-paying union job and you are in the middle class now—if you see a worker being dragged out of his workplace regardless of how skilled the job and potentially taken to another country, you should be ready to be there for that worker. When I.C.E. shows up, gather around and shame them into leaving. It has worked in other places. America is sleep walking into authoritarianism, and if there’s anyone out there who is a member of a labor union that is safe—at this point— and doesn’t think this applies to them. Understand that they just haven’t gotten to you yet. They’re coming for all of us. There are ...
