Collective bargaining is an essential human right for all workers. Unfortunately, Maryland law currently prohibits 15,000+ graduate students, adjuncts, lecturers, and full-time professors in the state-funded university system from organizing into unions with collective bargaining powers. If you would like to see that change, please join us for a discussion of the ongoing statewide campaign to get this anti-worker law repealed.

All community members, educators, and union supporters are welcome to attend this event. We're educators from Morgan State, Towson University, Coppin State, the University of Baltimore, UMBC, UMD-Baltimore, UMD-College Park, and the entire system looking to grow our coalition that already enjoys strong support from the AAUP, AFT, UAW, IWW, TRU, SEIU Local 500, and AFSCME Council 3.

Moderated by Maximillian Alvarez (Real News Network), with discussion by Jessica Burstrem (UMBC), Jared Ball (Morgan State), and Kate Drabinski (UMBC).
