Anarcho-Commissar posted:It's been great. I think it's really just that most people, especially working-class people, don't know how a budget works. And they can't really predict what they'll need, especially when until recently, many of the committees didn't do much, so there's little useful data. everyone's better learning from each other and learning how to do what's needed. data's a bit biased on my side since I know what to collect and look for and all, but not everyone knows how to do that

I want to help others who don't know how to do that.

Oh, hey sweet, I just found the thread, I've been a member in the UK for several years. Most of the time has been at large but I've reached out to the Freelance Writers Union since I used to write copy and still occasionally submit stuff for publication.

Just had a chat with an organiser for the Freelance Journalist Union, it was an interesting discussion, still early days but they've been overwhelmed with the interest they've received, and have a strategy of sorts for targeting several employers. There's also a website now https://freelancejournalistsunion.org/ they're still very interested in reaching out to anyone interested in getting involved and sharing their experiences in the industry, including people who've worked for websites and other online jobs.

One of my coworkers is attempting to organize but its looking pretty hopeless. There are maybe 10 people on board and any effort would be largely symbolic imo so i'm on the fence about paying $22 a month for dues.

If y'all form a GMB and have a secret core at your workplace, you could funnel peeps money and effort towards related industries and try to leverag what you have asymmetrically while slowly innoculating your workplace to have more affinity. Also, you can comp 1-1 food purchases thru your GMB, which is insane and my #1 buy in reason I give to my fellow poor friends to encourage unionization (legit doubling social reproduction with organizing is praxis102 and it feels sooo good)

A lot of the Freelance Journalists do considering the New York branch was the main group that started organising in the sector. Speaking of which it seems to be progressing. There have been some meetings, drafting testimonials and a statement of support for a worker being harassed, and we got some interest in the UK, so now its a question of trying to coordinate something. Oh and we got a new logo Which I feel is pretty sharp.
