present:

"I’m On Strike Because…"

a film about the NYU Grad strike Accurately describing a worker's reasons for going on strike requires nuance, complexity, and context - luxuries the striking workers at NYU don't have if they want media attention for their cause. This film documents, analyzes, and participates in the Graduate Student Organizing Committee's attempts to create simple, media-friendly messages and events that earn news coverage of their ongoing labor struggle.
