Agnieszka Mróz is a Polish activist and union organiser working at an Amazon warehouse in Poland. Agnieszka Mróz is a worker in an Amazon factory in Poznan, Poland. She’s also a union organiser, and a key player in the struggle against the monster corporation for fair wages and better conditions.

In this interview with Mehran Khalili, Agnieszka explores the tactics that her union uses to pressure Amazon’s management. She talks about the dirty tricks Amazon employs to try to keep the union in check, and how media gets the story wrong. And she explains why the fight against Amazon is the epicentre of the pushback against global capitalism more generally.

Frontline is a DiEM TV show about people who confront power, to figure out how they do it. The goal: to give you tips, tactics and inspiration for your own activist projects.
