My current job has me travelling for work more than I ever have before, and that involves frequent stays at hotels. One thing I never thought about before now is respecting hotel workers unions and their struggles with various hotels - avoiding hotels that are being boycotted or where workers are on strike or lockout. My girlfriend clued me in to the Hotel Labor Advisor, on a website maintained by UNITE Here. I’m going to make sure to check this before making my reservations in the future; hope y’all do, too.

- .@heathr OMG, seriously? It's not about your skin color; it's about your white privilege and your preachy, Native-quoting attitude. in reply to heathr 2010-03-23
- In fact, in many ways it actually bolsters some of the root, systemic problems (e.g. the Hyde Amendment, the health insurance industry). 2010-03-23
