The best time to join a union was 10 years ago. The second best moment is now.

Fascism is coming to your country, and nobody is coming to save you. Today fascism looks like a dorky asshole in a t-shirt with a company logo. Do you really want to live with the regret of having done nothing while a tech bro dismantled your country?

If you work in tech, join Tech Workers Coalition. TWC 101 event is the best way to come on board. No skills or previous experience expected. TWC is by workers and for workers: if you work, you're already one of us.

Option A will take place at 18:00 CEST / 12:00 PM ET / 9:00 AM PT, and you can register at bit.ly/twc101-feb2025A.

Option B will take place at 5:00 PM PT / 8:00 PM ET, and you can register at bit.ly/twc101-feb2025B.

Is this specifically for Americans? And who is organizing it?

[–] chobeat@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago

No, it's global. There are two timeslots to better accommodate the broadest possible crowd. TWC is mostly active in the USA and Europe atm, because the Indian chapter basically merged with the local IT union and stopped operating as TWC.

The event is organized by the TWC Global chapter, which is the "digital" chapter that supports the local chapters throughout the world.
