In Spring/Summer 2020, members of the UAW 4121 Anti-Discrimination Working Group who were regularly participating in Black Live Matter protests in the community recognized a need to be able to quickly coordinate with other union members about turning out to and connecting at events. As a result, we established a network of union members for rapid mobilization to protests and other events in the Seattle/Bothell/Tacoma area.
With the rise in needs for solidarity with the reproductive rights movement, Starbucks and Amazon unionization efforts, immigration justice, and more, this network is being revived in 2022 by the Solidarity Working Group. This network is meant to be a way for union members to quickly coordinate about upcoming events we want to attend, and to connect with others on the ground at events to help build safer and more accessible participation.
All UAW 4121 members are encouraged to join! Just fill out your contact information below and an organizer will follow up with more information and to add you. To help build accountability and trust, this network is limited to UAW members.
