Please note: You must register for this event through the Labor Notes website. RSVPs here will not reserve your spot.

Join Philly DSA, Labor Notes, and Philadelphia-area unionists for a day of skill-building workshops, education, and strategy discussions to put some movement back in the labor movement. The goal is to help workers get active in resisting management attacks—and taking the fight on the offensive. In other words: to make “good trouble.” Register here!

The school will be a great opportunity for union members and other workplace activists to share strategies and build the solidarity required in these tough times.

Workshop materials and plentiful snacks are included with cost of registration.

Adhering to Labor Notes' in-person event policy, participants must show proof of vaccination against Covid and wear a mask in public spaces.
