Just watched the finale of Fellow Travelers at an FYC event with cast and crew QnA. What a fantastic series!
It chronicles the failures of American society over the past 7 decades to embrace and protect everyone, no matter who or how they love. We’ve come so far, and yet we still have so far to go.
Gay rights are human rights.
Trans rights are human rights.
Love is love.

Let me in! Let us do what we do best. AMPTP has brought film and TV work in LA and across the country to a standstill, in an attempt to starve IATSE members out during our contract negotiations. Give us the fair deal that we deserve!
IN SOLIDARITY ✊
The spirit of the #IATSE was on full display at the #MayDay rally this past Wednesday in Hollywood. We asked our members how they felt about some of the issues being discussed in general negotiations. Here's what they had to say....

It’s the start of “Wages & Cost of Living Increase” week in the ADG CAT’s “Weekly Informational Topics” series, and this one speaks for itself!
Negotiations with the AMPTP restarted April 29th for the benefits plan and the basic agreement, where we will negotiate the percentage wage increases for IATSE members over the next 3 years. As this chart shows, the people we are negotiating with are being paid a fortune, and their pay has increased massively over the past 5 years.
At the March 3rd rally, IATSE President and chief negotiator Matt Loeb said “we are the antidote to the greed that’s been laid upon us,” and we stand with him and the rest of our negotiating team as they take that message to the bargaining table!
IN SOLIDARITY! ✊

Today is Workers Memorial Day, and we’re wrapping up “Safety & Time With Family” week in the ADG CAT’s “Weekly Informational Topics” series with these slides about the IATSE Safety Hotline. If at any point you feel unsafe at work, don’t hesitate to call 844-422-9273 (844-IA AWARE).
Today we mourn the loss of crew members who should still be with us today: Brent Hershman, Sarah Jones, Halyna Hutchins, and J.C. “Spike” Osorio.
Brent was taken from us when he had to work excessive hours and did not make it home safely. Studies have shown that productivity is extremely low after 55 hours of work in a week, and the WHO has concluded working 55 or more hours is associated with an increased risk of disease and death.
The motto for Workers Memorial Day is “Mourn the Dead, Fight for the Living”, and we must carry that idea with us every day.
IN SOLIDARITY! ❤️

We need to do more to protect workers. No one should die on the job because of negligence from their employer.
