The Historical Fight for Skilled, Human Labor
From switchboards to software, CWAers have always been on the frontlines of the fight to protect the dignity of work against the siren’s call of cost-cutting through automation and new technologies. Throughout the decades, CWAers have organized to ensure that new technologies augmented our labor, rather than replacing us.
