July Labor & Lit!

Labor & Lit is a new social event being offered by PSUFA where you can meet your PSU colleagues, as well as other higher education and union comrades, and have conversations about a given reading or video/film.

We discuss short articles, book chapters, or podcasts—the perfect book club for the contingent worker!

This month, we’ll be discussing local and regional strategies to make meaningful demands to stop climate change. Here are the materials to check out ahead of time:

• 18-minute radio interview with Susan Palmiter, Co-Leader of Divest Oregon, and from Andrew Bogrand, Communications Director of Divest Oregon.

• “Group Urges Oregon Treasury to Divest Billions of State Dollars From Fossil Fuels” Portland Mercury, April 22, 2022

We’ll be meeting in person (but outside) at the Red Fox. Labor & Lit will be co-facilitated by Erica Thomas, PSUFA political action chair, and Rory Cowal, PSUFA member and organizer in Divest Oregon.

When: July 13th from 5 to 7 p.m.
Where: Red Fox, 5128 N Albina Ave
