Title:

"Picture a better Duke" in frame

Description:

Duke Students & Workers in Solidarity (DSWS) formed in 2016 in response to grievances from employees in the Parking and Transportation Services department. Students partnered with staff and issued demands, staging “A-Ville” outside the Allen Building, and occupying the administrative building for a week. About their employment experience at Duke, one staff member said, “Although I have managed to survive, many of my beautiful brown coworkers have not.” DSWS’s activism is part of a history of student-employee coalitions around worker issues at Duke.
