DESCRIPTION:Sun, Mar  14, 2021: 10:30 am to 12:30 pm Pacific Time\nCollective Worker 
 Action in the Tech Industry\n\nA look at both the history of collective 
 actions taken by workers in the tech industry and the current state of the 
 movement. Tech has long been seen as an industry that has resisted worker 
 organization for many reasons. However, there has actually been a long 
 history of organization among tech workers. And, in the last few years, 
 there has been a groundswell of worker organizing in many of the largest 
 tech companies including Amazon, Microsoft, and Google. What are the 
 strategies that have been taken by the movement to build worker power and 
 how successful have they been? What is different and unique about 
 organizing workers in the tech industry? Come find out!\nBios:\nSarvesh 
 Rajasekaran has been working in the tech industry as an engineer and 
 product manager for over a decade and helps maintain Collective Action in 
 Tech. He has also been a community organizer for Bernie 2020 and Homes not 
 Handcuffs among other electoral and issue campaigns.\nKristen will join 
 Sarvesh and will provide her bio shortly.\n \nLOG-IN INFORMATION\nThe 
 meeting will be opened up, as usual, at 10:15 for anyone to join and 
 discuss technical matters, catch up with each other, say Hi, etc. We intend 
 to start the presentation as close to 10:30 am as possible. The program  
 will end at 12:30, but the zoom meeting will remain open for informal 
 discussion.\n \nLog-in info will be posted on our website, ICSSMARX.ORG by 
 Friday afternoon, March 12, 2021.\n\n\n
