Dear Mariane,

We are very excited to let you know that a new contributor is joining the book - Dana Kopel is a writer, editor, and union organizer. She is the former senior editor and publications coordinator at the New Museum, where she helped organize the New Museum Union-UAW Local 2110. Her writing appears in publications such as The NationThe BafflerFriezeFlash ArtArt in America, and SSENSE. In the fall she will begin a PhD in Labour History at UCLA.

I am hoping to get your permission to share your text with Dana, as she has quite a tight deadline and we are trying to give her as many resources as possible to jump start her text. Your essay is so essential to the context, I know it will be invaluable.

Let me know if that is ok with you.

Warmly,

Lauren

Hi Lauren,

Yes, absolutely. Happy to share. 
Thank you for asking, but please feel free to share my text with other contributors as needed. 

Dana might be interested to look at The Arts and Cultural Workers Union (ACWU) which was recently formed in Vancouver: https://www.valucoop.ca/acwu
To my knowledge, it's the only one in Canada.

I will definitely pass this link on to Dana.
Have a lovely weekend,
