WUFF was honored to host two wonderful groups for a sold out show last night with CUPE, Canadian Public Employees, who made a road map for labor union success with Bargaining Forward. CUPE was joined by New Labor New Jersey, both groups from New Brunswick! New Labor’s film Nos Somos Maquinas, We Are Not Machines, about exploited day laborers in NJ who are totally abused in their work days.
WUFF screened them together and we were thrilled to have these groups experience the other’s stories as a way of movng towards Global Labor Solidarity. National Employment Law Project who work with New Labor were there to support.
