Tenderloin Museum continues a years-long partnership with LaborFest, San Francisco’s annual month of grassroots labor programs, to present a panel on non-profit unions. Non-profit and NGO unionization is the fastest growing militant wing of the labor movement. Despite being ignored by the left media, these new mostly self-organized independent unions are taking on the “due gooder” myth of long hours, low wages and bad bosses—and they’re winning. Panelists include current and former non-profit & NGO workers and union staff union organizers. Much gratitude to Steve Zeltzer for organizing!
Panelists:
Robert Ovetz, moderator, Senior Lecturer, Political Science, SJSU
Author of the Rebels For the System: Non-Profits, NGOs, Capitalism and the Labor Movement (Haymarket Press 2027)
Katie Duberg, Bargaining Committee Member, CAWFC Workers United, CWA Local 9415, IG: @cawfcworkersunited
Fátima Murrieta, Pacific Northwest Staff Union (PNWSU), Writers Guild Staff Union NPEU, Shop Steward
Jeff Armstrong, PNWSU Organizing Officer

It is the greatest comeback since Lazarus! Bambi Lake has risen from the dead in the form of a new book. Wow. Did you hear? This book, aptly titled, Devour Me, Again, features poetry and an interview series—words of wisdom and revolution, a time long gone; glitter, glam, queens colliding, and, of course, some gossip…
Out July 21 via Nightboat Books, this volume was edited by August Bernadicou of the LGBTQ History Project, a non-profit digital archive that preserves primary sources of the LGBTQ+ liberation movement and makes accessible thousands of hours of oral histories with queer activists, performers, and “cutting edge catalysts.” Bay Area writer, rocker, and multi-valent performance artist Brontez Purnell contributed a beautifully witness reflection on Lake as a forward; Purnell will read at the July 30 TLM event alongside Donna Personna, Britney Smears, Stanley Frank, Fauxnique, Tahara, August Bernadicou, Birdie Bob Watt, and Nicole Henares and MORE!
