Labor On The Move: Kann Moving On

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)After nearly two years at the Metro Washington Council, Assistant Mobilizer Julia Kann will be leaving at the end of June. Kann plans to stay in DC and continue doing social justice work, she says, adding “don’t be surprised if you see me out on the picket line!” Kann brought “tremendous energy and boundless enthusiasm” to the Council’s Union City programs, said Metro Council President Jos Williams. “Julia is an inspiring example of a new generation of activists,” added Union Cities Coordinator Chris Garlock. “We wish her the very best and know that she’ll still be working hard to forge a better world for everyone.” After June, you can contact Kann at julia.kann(at)gmail.com. photo: Kann as the "T-Mobile Girl" at a July 2012 T-Mobile action; photo by Chris Garlock
