Abstract

Abstract:

As the COVID-19 pandemic spread, it became clear that for many in business and government, working people are worth only what we can contribute to the accumulation of profits; if we're not productive, we're expendable. While many have been forced to stay home and worry about how to pay the bills, others are working longer and harder in newly dangerous conditions. Since March, we have been collecting short stories about what workers are facing during the crisis, and how they have been fighting back, eight of which you can read here. For more stories, visit the Dissent website, where we continue to bring you the latest updates.
