We discuss what it takes to build worker power from scratch and how these efforts can reshape not only our workplaces, but democracy itself.

Jaz’s civic action toolkit recommendations are:

1. Organize a union in your workplace
2. Train at Inside Organizer School

Jaz Brisack is a union organizer and cofounder of the Inside Organizer School, as well as the author of Get on the Job and Organize: Standing Up for a Better Workplace and a Better World.
