In the session "The Conjunctures of Race, Skill, and Technology: From Cast in a Racial Mould to Recasting Workers’ Power," Bridget Kenny takes us on a journey through the historical intersections of race and skill, and how they continue to shape today’s workforce. Kenny explores how advancements in technology are altering power dynamics within workplaces, revealing both challenges and opportunities for worker empowerment. By critically examining the lasting impacts of racial and skill-based divisions, she offers insights into how we might confront these legacies to foster more equitable and inclusive work environments. This thought-provoking session invites us to reimagine worker empowerment in ways that acknowledge and transform past divisions, paving the way toward a more just future.
