In this episode, we talk about the current WGA strike in 2023 and how actors are supporting them. We also discuss how the music industry can learn to unionize to protect the creators that make up the industry.
The WGA strike is a major labor dispute between the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers. The strike began on May 2, 2023, and has resulted in the cancellation of many television shows and movies.
Actors have been supporting the WGA strike by refusing to cross picket lines. This has had a significant impact on the entertainment industry, as many actors are essential to the production of television shows and movies.
The music industry can learn from the WGA strike by forming unions to protect the rights of musicians. Musicians are often exploited by the music industry, and they need to have a strong voice to advocate for their interests.
By unionizing, musicians can negotiate better contracts, get paid more fairly, and have more control over their careers. They can also use their union to fight for issues such as copyright reform and fair compensation for streaming.
