SUMMARY:Labor Speaker Series | “Roots of Resistance: A Story of Gender\, Race\, and Labor on the North Coast of Honduras” Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:Topic: “Roots of Resistance: A Story of Gender\, Race\, and Labor on the North Coast of Honduras” Book Talk\nDate: Thursday\, November 10\nTime: 1:00pm – 2:30pm PT\nLocation: UCLA Young Research Library\, Presentation Room\, Room 11348\n\nJoin us for a Book Talk with Suyapa G. Portillo Villeda\, author of Roots of Resistance: A Story of Gender\, Race\, and Labor on the North Coast of Honduras.\n\nOn May 1\, 1954\, striking banana workers on the North Coast of Honduras brought the regional economy to a standstill\, invigorating the Honduran labor movement and placing a series of demands on the US-controlled banana industry. Their actions ultimately galvanized a broader working-class struggle and reawakened long-suppressed leftist ideals. The first account of its kind in English\, Roots of Resistance explores contemporary Honduran labor history through the story of the great banana strike of 1954 and centers the role of women in the narrative of the labor movement.\n\nDrawing on extensive firsthand oral history and archival research\, Suyapa G. Portillo Villeda highlights the complexities of transnational company hierarchies\, gender and race relations\, and labor organizing that led to the banana workers strike and how these dynamics continue to reverberate in Honduras today.\n\nGuest Speaker: Suyapa G. Portillo Villeda\, Associate Professor of Chicana/o Latina/o Transnational Studies\, Pitzer College\n\nLoading…

SUMMARY:Labor Speaker Series | “Is Formalization the Answer? Is Informality the Problem?” Waste Picker Rights Policy in São Paolo and Bogotá with Manuel Rosaldo
DESCRIPTION:Topic: “Is Formalization the Answer? Is Informality the Problem?” Waste Picker Rights Policy in São Paolo and Bogotá\nDate: Thursday\, October 13th\nTime: 3:00pm – 4:30pm PT\nLocation: Luskin School of Public Affairs Faculty Lounge\, Room 5391\n\nUnder what circumstances does the formalization of informal jobs lead to pro-worker outcomes\, and when might formalization intensify workers’ exploitation or deprive them of work altogether? Drawing on 24 months of ethnographic field research\, this presentation analyzes two ambitious efforts to integrate informal waste pickers into formal waste management. This research finds that formalization policies in Bogotá\, Colombia elevated the incomes\, conditions\, and voice of thousands of waste pickers\, whereas parallel efforts in the seemingly more favorable context of São Paulo\, Brazil did not. Ultimately\, these differential outcomes hinged on waste pickers’ levels of power to shape policy design and implementation. \n\nGuest Speaker: Manuel Rosaldo\, Assistant Professor of Labor Relations and Sociology\, The Pennsylvania State University\nLoading…
