The Break Room: Aminah Sheikh (Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario)

Welcome to The Break Room, our new, ongoing series where workers and organizers send in 15-20-minute clips to talk about issues they're facing, actions they're taking, and more! (Think of it as a community message board of sorts). In this installment, Aminah Sheikh, a labor organizer with Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO), tells us about how she worked with educators in Ontario to launch a successful unionization campaign during the Covid-19 pandemic.    If you'd like to send something in to The Break Room, hit us up at [email protected]!    Additional links/info below...
