 Finding Ourselves in the Changing World of Work

“Recognizing our shared existential insecurity, and understanding how it is
currently used against us, can be a first step toward forging solidarity.
Solidarity, in the end, is one of the most important forms of security we
can possess – the security of confronting our shared predicament as humans
on this planet in crisis, together.”
Astra Taylor, author of The Age of Insecurity: Coming Together as Things
Fall Apart
