- Oakland: Join the “User, Worker, Owner! Bringing Democracy to Work” event on May 2 with Tech Workers Coalition, Reflex Design Collective, and CoLab.coop where they will define problems they face in tech workplaces and platforms, connect with like-minded peers, and explore strategies to shift ownership and control with an intersectional equity lens.
