  • Gorillas Workers Collective

    November 8th, 2021  |  1 hr 36 mins

    At last: we sit down with the Gorillas Workers Collective. How do you form a Betriebsrat? What's the future of the left? We hash it out over some bottles of wine and with lots of love.

    Thanks to Anna, Diego, Joseph and Camilo for their time and the entire Collective for the organizing they've done and continue to do.

    You can email the Gorillas Workers Collective about organizing your workplace (or about anything else) at gorillasworkers@zohomail.com

    You can keep up with the latest on their Twitter: https://twitter.com/GorillasWorkers or Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gorillasworkers/

    One thing we alluded to but didn't actually get to: Gorillas workers are going through several court cases; details of some cases are on their Twitter page. Upcoming court dates and support demos will be announced very soon and we will publicize it on our show as soon as we can - so keep an eye out for that.

    Finally, this week we put some extra / loose bits from the interview as a bonus episode on Patreon. Check us out there if you're looking for more: https://www.patreon.com/cornerspaeti
