Message from a representative of the local union:
I think it's a beautiful idea to do an aid fund for the UAW workers that Oberlin College has outsourced. Throughout this experience the UAW workers have felt devalued and othered by the administration. Your group’s efforts are a very moving reminder that the Oberlin we all love still exists. It's just not apparent in the actions of the current decision makers.
Kindness and gratitude are hopeful things. We need more of that in our world right now!
Please do share my note. If it encourages more acts of kindness, that will be welcome. Your group’s support over these long months has meant so much to the UAW folks in the Oberlin College community. We can't thank you enough! 💙
With gratitude and solidarity,
Buffy
