One of The 100 Most Influential People in the World
With
Ai-jen Poo, Director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance
TIME Magazine named Ai-jen Poo one of The 100 Most Influential
People in the World - a creative organizer who knows how to create
social change from the bottom up. Ai-jen Poo, has been growing into
that role since she was a student outraged by the stories of domestic
workers, often immigrants or women of color, who labored long hours
for low pay as nannies, maids, housekeepers, cooks, elder caregivers,
and other household workers – women who had been treated as
unskilled and expendable, yet who were responsible for raising children,
caring for the ill and elderly and facilitating the daily lives of millions of
families.
Ai-jen Poo's gift for creating worker-led groups and empathetic tactics
has made the National Domestic Workers Alliance into an umbrella
organization with 35 satellites around the country, with more than 10,000
members. Ai-jen Poo has done this by creating a new paradigm for how
we value work and with that how workers can built their power collectively.
Ai-jen goes beyond organizing to transforming. .

Getting Back to Basics – Jobs for All
With
Trudy Goldberg, Chair, National Jobs for All Coalition
While the issue uppermost in the voters’ minds this election year is jobs,
jobs and good jobs, you’d hardly know it by following the campaigns or
even the protests for the 99%. But the National Jobs for All Coalition is
always on target about the tragedy of unemployment, underemployment
and deteriorating working conditions and has a program to move forward
on this crucial issue. Trudy Goldberg spoke to us leading a contingent of
the National Jobs for All Coalition from the NYC Union Square protest on
May Day 2012
