78. Athena Coalition organizing to challenge Amazon

Listen to an interview with Jason Schwartz who works with the Athena Coalition. In this interview Jason speaks about the many aspects of activist organizing that is taking place to confront unjust aspects of Amazon corporation policies. In this exchange we hear about Amazon worker organizing for justice and union representation, also the challenge toward Amazon's involvement in invasive and unjust digital technologies and surveillance, while Jason presents a broader analysis that addresses the urgency to think about intersectional critiques toward Amazon as central to building oppositional forces against Amazon today. Athena Coalition is described this way: "Athena is a broad coalition of local and national organizations representing working people, small business people, people of color, immigrants, and neighbors, along with activists, advocates, policy experts, and academics. We are coming together to create an economy where everyone can thrive, defend our climate, safeguard our communities from surveillance, and expand our democracy. We need everyone to devise these solutions – join us." Info : https://www.athenaforall.org Music on this edition by Nomadic Massive.
