GS 339S - Sweat/Service/Solidarity SL


This class examines labor rights, global contexts of labor issues, challenges to labor mobilization and how to overcome them. These themes are contextualized in labor history and legislation including the impacts of neoliberalism on the U.S. and other countries. Students examine the intersectionality of their cultural identities (including class, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation) and their places in global processes. Students earn UDSL credits by servicing the needs of workers, local labor unions, and labor organizations in the Monterey tri-county region.
