Headline: Join the New Orleans Workers Center for Racial Justice and Be a Part of Transforming the South Description: The New Orleans Workers Center for Racial Justice (Workers' Center) is a dynamic organization that emerged in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, when the need for racial justice and economic empowerment became more urgent than ever. Founded by a group of Black and immigrant workers, the Workers' Center has since become a powerful force in the fight for equality and social change in the Southern region. Situated in the vibrant city of New Orleans, the Workers' Center is deeply rooted in the local community. The city itself is a melting pot of cultures, with a rich history and a vibrant arts scene. From the lively music festivals to the mouthwatering cuisine, New Orleans is a place that celebrates diversity and embraces its unique heritage. The Workers' Center draws inspiration from this spirit of resilience and uses it to fuel their work towards a more just and inclusive society. The community served by the Workers' Center is diverse and vibrant, consisting of workers from various backgrounds, including public housing developments, FEMA trailer parks, day labor corners, and labor camps across Louisiana. These individuals have come together to form a new freedom movement, one that is multi-racial, committed to racial, gender, and immigrant justice, and dedicated to rewriting the narrative of possibility in the Southern region. The Workers' Center is not just an organization; it is a movement. With a hybrid, multi-disciplinary impact strategy, the Workers' Center serves as both a "think and do tank" and a membership organization. Their mission is to expand democracy, achieve a just economy, and transform the country by transforming the South. By working at the Workers' Center, staff members have the opportunity to be part of a larger movement for social change, where their voices and actions can make a real difference. One of the most exciting aspects of working at the Workers' Center is the opportunity to be at the forefront of building permanent progressive civil society infrastructure in the Southern region. As the Workers' Center enters its second decade, it is gearing up to advance a long-term Southern agenda for an inclusive economy. This means that staff members will have the chance to shape the future of the organization and contribute to the larger vision of a more equitable society. Working at the Workers' Center is not just a job; it is a calling. Staff members have the chance to work alongside passionate and dedicated individuals who are committed to making a positive impact in their community. The organization provides a supportive and collaborative work environment, where staff members are encouraged to bring their unique perspectives and ideas to the table. In addition to the rewarding nature of the work itself, the Workers' Center offers competitive benefits and professional development opportunities. Staff members have access to ongoing training and mentorship, allowing them to grow both personally and professionally. The organization also values work-life balance and promotes a healthy and inclusive workplace culture. Joining the New Orleans Workers Center for Racial Justice means becoming part of a movement that is reshaping the South and fighting for a more just and equitable society. By working at the Workers' Center, staff members have the opportunity to make a lasting impact, not only in their own lives but also in the lives of countless others. Together, they are building a future where everyone has a voice and where racial justice and economic empowerment are not just ideals, but a reality.
