The Indypendent News Hour
Tue, May 24, 2022 17:00 PM
Sireah McNeill is being denied a lease to her family home after her mother’s passing in February and is determined to rally community support to stop this act of displacement and gentrification in the Historic Clinton Hill community. We speak with McNeill and organizers from Brooklyn Eviction Defense, a grassroots group of tenants supporting tenants in Brooklyn.
We speak with labor organizers Wen Zhuang and Eric Dirnbach, who are trying to speed accelerate worker unionization rates. EWOC is pioneering a new model of labor organizing that fills a huge void left by traditional unions that don’t emphasize organizing unorganized workers. The Indy’s Amba Guerguerian wrote the cover story on the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee, or EWOC, after covering various labor battles in the city over the past year.
