client:The Tufts Dailysummary:Throughout the last year, Tufts Labor Coalition (TLC) has been organizing in support of DTZ custodial employees who work on Tufts’ campuses. Students, faculty, staff and members of the custodians’ union, Service Employees International Union (SEIU) 32BJ, held demonstrations in opposition to a reorganization of the staff, which was originally estimated to result in 35 layoffs and was projected to save the university $900,000 annually. After the restructuring was implemented earlier this year — ultimately displacing 18 custodians, seven of whom are no longer working with DTZ — efforts have turned to fundraising in support of those workers who were affected.tags:writing

At the age of 17, Amy moved across the country to Kentucky, exiting her southern California life forever. “I like not having my neighbor two feet from me," she says.

client:Internship Projectsummary:In 2000 Sheila Kadende moved from Zimbabwe to Johannesburg, South Africa. In 2006 her landlord suddenly evicted her and every other resident of their building in Johannesburg's Central Business District to make way for new construction: a mall. Kadende is a victim of the city government's efforts to rejuvenate low-income areas with shopping centers and small businesses - an effort commonly known as gentrification. Since her eviction, Kadende, 42, her eight year old daughter Madeleine and her twenty year old nephew Washington have lived in a desperate housing situation, provided by the government that theoretically treats accommodation as a human right but practically is overwhelmed by systemic poverty.tags:visual
