American Sweatshop: AWU-CWA Hosts Virtual Screening and Panel Discussion

On September 29, members of the Alphabet Workers Union-CWA Local 9009 (AWU-CWA), in partnership with Brainstorm Media, will host a virtual screening of American Sweatshop, a film about a social media content moderator who witnesses a crime and will not stop until justice is served.

Immediately following the movie, AWU-CWA members John Donovan and Emily Albert, who both handle trust and safety content in their jobs for GlobalLogic and RWS, respectively, will host a panel discussion with film producer Jason Sosnoff and film director Uta Briesewitz. Panelists will discuss the working conditions the film depicts and how workers can “take matters into their own hands” in real life by forming a union.

The virtual event takes place on Monday, September 29, at 5 PT/6 MT/7 CT/8 ET, and tickets are $10/person. Sign up for your ticket here!
