My name’s Lilly Wachowski.

I’m out here on the picket line to support my fellow union, brothers, sisters, and siblings, for better wages, for a better future. And I’m also here because I think that this is a microcosm of a much larger issue.

There’s a correlation between what’s happening here and what’s happening in the world in terms of the flow of wealth in the world. It’s like the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. The middle class is getting squeezed out, and a lot more of them are living on the margins of society than ever before.

If we can start pushing back on these oligarchs, we can start to rearrange how, not just in this industry, but all industries, are ordered.
