Her work, Kitchen Table Series, “inspired a generation of artists who had never before seen a woman of color looking confidently out at them from a museum wall”.

UPDATE: The newly chartered Local 111 Negotiating Committee met at our West Coast Office to bargain a first agreement with the AICP.
This is the first time Commercial Production Workers have a seat at the table following a massive 5,000 worker organizing win earlier this year.

BREAKING: 5,000 Unionizing TV Commercial Production Workers Have Certified Majority, @StandWithProd WILL WIN VOLUNTARY RECOGNITION WITH IATSE!!!!!
The group set to become the largest contingent of production department workers and entry level Production Assistants within IATSE.
ALT NEW YORK, NY — Freelance workers in production departments for TV commercials across the United States are set to win voluntary recognition of their union after a neutral third party confirmed a majority of these workers signed cards indicating they wish to unionize with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE). The organizing workers include an estimated 5,000 Production Assistants (PA’s), Line Producers, Production Supervisors, Assistant Production Supervisors and Bidding Producers whose work facilitates TV Commercials seen by millions each year and is produced under the Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP). These workers came together to address low pay, unsustainable hours, lack of reasonable rest, lack of employer-funded healthcare and retirement benefits, ineligibility for overtime pay, and limited access to safety and training, among other issues.

We know that the Neutrality agreement can sound complicated, so we broke it down to help explain what it all means. Help spread the word. @IATSE @MorePerfectUS

A HUGE WIN for Freelance Production Workers! With our partners @IATSE, we have managed to secure a Neutrality Agreement with @AICProducers which gives our community a path to Voluntary Recognition and a UNION! @THR hollywoodreporter.com/busine…

BREAKING: The NLRB has ruled that Tesla violated the law by restricting its workers from wearing pro-union apparel.
Going forward, attempts by employers to "impose any restriction on the display of union insignia" will be presumed illegal.
Thank you @ADG800 and @IATSE for your support as we fight for the recognition our workers have been denied for decades by the AICP. Everyone deserves safer, better working conditions and fair opportunities and we're going to fight to make sure that it happens! #UnionStrong

This is a slap in the face to every IATSE member. All workers should be able to make their voices heard without threats or fear of retaliation.
The @AICP should stop union-busting!

AICP companies produce progressive content which is wonderful, BUT when the AICP itself continues to use union busting tactics targeting workers fighting for better conditions they’re signaling that they’re not progressive. Let’s do the right thing. #IATSE @4As @ANAmarketers

Voluntary guidelines aren’t enough to solve the issues. We need a practical solution. It is long overdue that we form a union for production workers. #iatse #union #Advertising #hollywood @ANAmarketers @4As @AICProducers @IATSE @Adweek @THR @Variety @AFLCIO

TV Commercial Production freelancers are creative, driven and get things done. They accept every challenge with a solution based mentality
Thats why @StandWithProd workers are unionizing - bc they know the challenge of improving working conditions is easier when we join together
BINGO!
The AICP is desperate to shut down our movement and is using old tricks that we have all seen before. We won’t let them mislead our community. How many of these union busting tactics have YOU heard?
