What, when, where, why, who, and how? - Pierre Bourdieu reading time

BREAKING: United Auto Workers today passed a resolution at its convention, 321-287, to divest from Israeli bonds. With nearly 400,000 members, UAW becomes the largest US union to officially divest from Israel. The vote received support from a range of sectors, including a large number of Michigan auto delegates, in addition to legal services and higher education. The original call for divestment came from a wildcat strike of 2,000 mainly Arab American workers at Chrysler’s Dodge Main in 1973. Amid the genocide in Gaza, pro-Palestinian labor groups and UAW locals renewed and intensified their campaign. Speakers motivated for the resolution by citing the union’s legacy of divesting from South African apartheid in 1978.
