Bridging Divides and Taking Risks
In this chapter, an interview is conducted with one of the worker organizers named Angelica Maldonado. She discusses various strategies they employed to bridge generational, racial, ethnic, and language divides among the diverse workforce at Amazon. She highlights the easier sway of younger workers compared to older workers and the importance of organizing across racial lines. Additionally, she mentions how intentional calculated risks were taken by the organizers to demonstrate that they should not be afraid of Amazon's union-busting tactics.
