One small quibble, climate change hasn't made outdoor markets untenable. If anything it has made winters warmer. I say this as a worker in one of those same markets. One of the workers' complaints is that they don't want to work outside when it's cold but it's actually warmer than it used to be when the markets began in 1976. Somehow everyone was able to dress for the weather back then when winters were actually colder and snowier.

That's so fucking disappointing from the union. It's also really strange. I've now been working with unions for 25 years and it has always been the practice to translate materials into the languages of the workers and to vet images or not use images that weren't produced in-house. It's not a like a new best practice or something. It's been that way for as long as I've known organizing campaigns. I'm not suggesting the union didn't make it or anything. If it's a rogue piece, the union should have done much better with their apology. Ugh.
