Laura and David discuss the recent UC strike with Magally A. Miranda Alcázar, a graduate student in the Chicanx and Central American Studies Department at UCLA. Maga was a participant in the strike and active in the rank-and-file movement to push for a No vote against contract ratification.

Interviewee bio:

Magally A. Miranda Alcázar is a doctoral candidate at UCLA, and an activist working at the intersection of gender, race, labor, and technological disruptions.

Because of the length of our discussion with Maga, we’ve split the interview into two parts. This is Part Two.

In this part we get into more depth on the dynamics of the strike as it unfolded, the importance of non-economic demands such as Cops Off Campus and disability access, the political ideology of the union leadership versus that of rank and file activists, and the impact of the strike on future campus politics.
