We stand in solidarity with the workers at Yale who were forced to go out on strike. We call on Yale to: * Sit down with the graduate teachers and researchers of GESO, and work out an agreement on a democratic, fair, fast process for them to decide whether they want to unionize. * Facilitate negotiations between District 1199 and the management of Yale

I have been staring at my inbox for hours reading through all the notes from people who signed and it is honestly wild to see so many academics from different departments agreeing that this needs to change. Things have been quiet on my end because I am busy chasing down faculty who said they would help us get a meeting with the administration so please hold tight while we figure out who is actually willing to open a door for us.

Seeing all these names from different departments and universities piling up is honestly kind of dizzying in the best way possible. I keep refreshing the page just to make sure I am seeing it right because this surge of energy feels like it could actually push them to the table finally.

Yale has the money to treat these people way better. It is shameful how they drag their feet on basic fairness.

About time they got a union. Yale acts like they are above labor laws.

Research and teaching staff are the backbone of that university. Pay them what they are worth and respect their rights ffs.
