Join labor activists from around New Orleans—and the South—to strategize, share skills, and learn how to organize to win.

Troublemakers Schools are day-long mini-conferences that cover organizing skills and highlight real-world examples of taking on the boss, and winning!

Past workshops and panels have covered topics like:

• Beating Apathy
• Turning an Issue into a Campaign
• Building unions despite obstacles in the South
• ...and much more!

Whether you're new to unions or are an experienced union activist, there's something here for you. We encourage local unions to send a group of members.
