Fighting the 24 Hour Workday
Manage episode 410719460 series 2863079
On March 20th, home care workers in New York went on a hunger strike to demand an end to the dreaded 24-hour workday. States in the Global North seek to alleviate their aging populations by bringing in workers from the Global South, where imperialism and neoliberal policies have forced these workers to immigrate to global metropoles such as New York City, only to end up trapped in sweatshop labor. Jun and Yolanda from Youth Against Sweatshops and the Ain't I a Woman campaign share with us stories of home care workers struggle, as well as connecting the fight against the 24-hour day with gentrification and Palestine.
