SUMMARY:Book Talk with Victor Narro\, The Activist Spirit - Toward a Radical Solidarity
DESCRIPTION:The Public Interest Law Program at UCLA School of Law is hosting a virtual event on Professor Victor Narro’s new book The Activist Spirit –  Toward a Radical Solidarity on Wednesday\, April 20 from 12:15-1:15 p.m. \nBook description:  \nLabor and immigrant rights activist Victor Narro believes there is a spiritual core within social justice activism from which we can deepen our solidarity with each other. The work for justice is filled with the values attributed to spirituality – love\, compassion\, empathy for those in need\, and a lifetime commitment to bring justice into their lives. His book calls us to integrate that inner spiritual core into our work to make the struggle for justice more compassionate\, caring\, and sustainable. To be an activist for justice is to love humanity and all of creation. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the UCLA Institute for Research on Labor and Employment and UCLA Labor Studies. \nRSVP HERE.

SUMMARY:Book Talk with Cynthia Cranford\, Home Care Fault Lines: Understanding Tensions and Creating Alliances
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a Book Talk with Dr. Cranford\, Professor of Sociology\, University of Toronto and author of Home Care Fault Lines: Understanding Tensions and Creating Alliances (Cornell University Press\, 2020) on April 21nd\, 2022 at 5:00 p.m. \nHome care is a window into the complexity of inequality. Drawing from Home Care Fault Lines: Understanding Tensions and Creating Alliances (Cornell University Press\, 2020)\, this talk examines the tensions and possibilities for alliances that are essential for understanding\, and challenging\, inequalities in homecare. How can we arrange home care to minimize tensions and maximize alliances? The book addresses this question by comparing how four government-funded programs differ in the way they arrange home care. Focusing on the most personal in-home support\, that is paid help with daily activities like bathing and eating\, the book’s analysis rests on over 300 interviews that reveal how a variety of players shape the conditions of home care service and work in unique contexts. This talk will compare two of the cases illuminating the limits and possibilities of coalitions for flexibility with security. \nDr. Cranford studies inequalities of gender\, labour and migration\, and collective efforts to resist them. Her most recent research project is a\ncomparative study of home care showcased in Home Care Fault Lines: Understanding Tensions and Creating Alliances\, published in 2020 by\nCornell University’s ILR Press and co-winner of the Distinguished Scholarly Book Award from the American Sociological Association Labor and Labor Movements Section. Dr. Cranford is also the co-author of Self-employed Workers Organize: Law\, Policy and Unions published by McGill-Queens University Press (2005) and her work has been published in several journals including Critical Sociology\, Gender & Society\, Gender\, Work and Organisation\, Just Labour\, Social Problems\, Work\, Employment and Society\, and in several edited volumes. \nThis event will be held in person at Haines Hall A25\, 375 Portola Plaza\, Los Angeles\, CA and broadcasted live via Zoom. \nTo join us for the Zoom broadcast of the event\, please register HERE.
