This talk will address several questions pertinent to the current University of California strike and its place in the wider U.S. labor movement. 

• Whom does the UAW represent, and why do they represent graduate students and postdocs?
• What is the trajectory of the U.S. labor movement, and where do graduate students and postdocs fit in (private vs. public; professionals vs. workers)
• How do labor laws matter?
• Why do workers strike, and what power dynamics occur when they do?
• What is the trajectory of strikes in U.S. labor history?
• What is the role of Unfair Labor Practices cases in strikes?
• What are the various parties and sides in the University of California strike? Why might its outcome matter?
