"In this episode Lauren Wetmore speaks with writer and organizer Dana Kopel about her widely-read article "Against Artspolitation: Unionizing the New Museum," published in September 2021 by The Baffler. In conversation, Kopel expands on "the personal and messy dimensions" of unionizing work, and reflects on the challenges of calling out the exploitation, abuses, and hypocrisies of an art industry that, at the time, she was actively working in. She doesn't hold back on the sacrifices made or the consequences suffered as a result of this successful union drive, but she also stresses that there is never a sole author. Kopel offers emotional and practical resources for organizing work but also acknowledges that "the fight really doesn't end ... the end point is the end of capitalism, the end of institutions, and abolition. And until we get there, this is just what we keep doing every fucking day.""-- provided by distributor.
