Workers’ inquiries are strategic interventions to grasp power in the workplace, informal work groups and divisions within the class, forms of mutual aid and informal organization, “organic” leadership, and can aid organizing efforts and develop workers’ own class consciousness.  In this workshop participants will learn about various strategies and tactics for developing, implementing, and circulating worker’s inquiries grounded in historical and contemporary examples; partake in large group reading and listening exercises; and craft a sample plan to use workers’ inquiry in an organizing context. Presenters will speak about their own workers’ inquiry “Class Composition in the Café Sector” and organizing efforts with the Blue Bottle Independent Union.
