Our artform should not be a speculative asset.
The McClatchy workers in the PNW won an incredible contract after a year of bargaining including some of the best language on Artificial Intelligence in a NewsGuild contract. We are hosting a virtual town hall on August 5th to share lessons and answer your questions. DM for the Registration Link.
You’ve helped us raise over 80k for laid off gamedevs in need so far, and we still have plenty of time left in the bundle’s drive. Everyone who organized this effort was doing so on their own time for the benefit of others. If these companies wanted to, they would. They don’t. We do. Join us. ✊
Without serious public pushback, trillionaire corporations like Microsoft will continue to treat talented developers like Naomi Green as expendable. Help us break this unbalanced system and #SaveGameWorkers by telling Microsoft to end their cycles of layoffs: shorturl.at/5ruBE

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette workers went on strike for over 3 years fighting for justice. Right after the strikers won, the owners announced they were closing the paper. Now, workers have launched The Pittsburgh Progress which is “owned and democratically run by its workers and members.”
