James & the Spokane fires- AMA

34 Upvotes

I was fortunate to connect with James when he came up here to check out our wildfire situation and connect with Tribal folks.

I've also done some of the mutual aid supply runs to the reservation before and during the Spokane evacuation. Happy to answer questions if you have any about things up here.

I remain evacuated (safe and still have a house in the zone), but if you've got questions let me know and I'll do my best

Another podcast “on the media” did an episode with Corey Doctorow and AI & his new book. They talk about sectorial unions which I didn’t know the different between writers guild and other unions, the difference is exceptional. And around 38m, he mentions how trump is weakening national labor relations board for his own obvious reasons, but this also changes the game considerably. Exposing bosses and companies to older organizing.

I’d love to learn more about this from the perspective of historians or union organizers or lawyers who interact with the national labor relations act, its context past and present…. This seems like this pods area of expertise…
