Jeff Bezos really is offended that in his empire a little tech guild formed. Hazel Court and myself joined former acting Department of Labor Secretary and Senior Fellow at Burnes Center for Social Change, Seth Harris to recount our victory in May 2025. I was incredibly nervous doing this podcast. I have avoided speaking publicly about organizing because I do not wish to be internet famous. But I do think it's really important to share our story in unionizing tech workers. The hardest thing in building a union has been making people believe in themselves. We did a lot work to socialize before organize. We want to help friends and friends of friends much more readily than strangers. Community became the biggest driver to building our tech guild. It is honestly the biggest achievement in my career. I can proudly say, I am a founding member of the Washington Post Tech Guild.
