“Making Movement: Communities of Color and New Models of Organizing Labor.”

Labor Law Journal & La Raza Law Journal Symposium!
Friday, April 8, 2005 8:30 AM
Booth Auditorium

Join Berkeley La Raza Journal and Berkeley Journal of Employment and Labor Law in our joint symposium entitled, “Making Movement: Communities of Color and New Models of Organizing Labor.” Our event is, in part, a continuation of a dialogue inititated in 2001 between BJELL & BLRLJ in a symposium entitled “The Changing Face of Labor.” Four years later our missions, mandates, and voices reunite. Our goal is to spotlight those organizations advocating for and advancing the rights of working communities of color in the United States and south of our border. This paradigm shift also begs the question of how we—up-and-coming attorneys, legal scholars, and community advocates can use our skills to advocate on behalf of underrepresented communities. Workers’ rights are human rights. Join BJELL and BLRLJ as we come together to make movement.
