West’s Wikipedia glosses over his work on behalf of corporate profits, instead focusing on things like Uber “ending” use of forced arbitration in sexual misconduct cases.

If you haven’t already checked it out, this @TheProspect article on West’s work at Uber is required reading. https://prospect.org/labor/kamala-harris-uber-test-california-ride-hailing-law/

They’re actually going to try to make this happen. Seems like an appropriate time to re-up @grtnrr’s great piece from this summer: https://prospect.org/justice/which-side-are-liberal-lawyers-on-labor-workers-rights/
