Black workers fighting for justice
At the LABWC, Black workers and allies are building a world where we thrive in an equitable economy that sustains and builds.
Black people are fighting for greater control of where we work
The Los Angeles Black Worker Center’s (LABWC) mission is to increase access to quality jobs, reduce employment discrimination, and improve industries that employ Black workers through action and unionization. We are creating the stability and resources needed for our communities to prosper in the immediate term—and for generations to come.
Program Spotlight
Ready 2 Work
Strengthening our skills and leadership
Our Ready 2 Work program is a series of workshops where Black workers share political education and build the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. The program provides a welcoming environment to receive industry-specific coaching and mentorship. Participants learn best practices for the job application and interview process, as well as how to navigate challenges that may arise at work.
People power this movement.
For Black workers to have equitable access to better wages and economic opportunities, we need everyone to get involved. Check out some of the many ways you can take action.
