Lessons in Solidarity from an Amazon Organizer

Fresh off the latest national victory against Amazon’s failed Unpaid Time Off retaliation, I was keen to check in with Amazon Teamsters about how things were going with their campaigns. I caught up with Juan Mereles, Teamsters union member and docks department worker at KSBD, and Amazon Air Hub in San Bernardino, California.  On this episode of the Union Bug, we’re talking about the working conditions at Juan’s warehouse, organizing against a giant corporation like Amazon, living in the Inland Empire, and how best to build community with your coworkers and your neighbors. Check out the Amazon Teamsters on Instagram. Catch up with IE Amazon Workers here. Host: Mel Buer Production and Editing: Mel Buer
