Susanna Fournier - Thought #11 - Unpopular Tensions on Labour Reform

Unpopular tension. I will fight for labour reform in the arts making sector. It's an important fight that will benefit a lot of people. But I'm not sure it will change the culture of labour we live in. And I'm pretty sure it won't change me. I started out with certain privileges, and then continued to make some pretty hard life choices and large sacrifices-- that support my ability to funnel additional time, energy, and probably a lot of my sanity, into my work practice. Given the culture we live in, and the sheer nature of time on deck, I receive more benefits and opportunities because of this. So, labour reform will benefit many, but I'm not sure it will level the playing field. Is that what people think it will do?
