Carol Rifelj Faculty Lecture Series - Jamie McCallum: "An Injury to All: Workers & Social Movements During the Pandemic"

Jamie McCallum, Associate Professor of Sociology
“An Injury to All: Essential Workers and Social Movements During the Pandemic”

This lecture is based on Professor McCallum’s 2022 book on essential workers during the pandemic. It shows that labor unions and other social movements were important forces of social change shaping the pandemic political economy. These forces can help us navigate a post-pandemic future that is more equitable, just, and safe for all of us.
