Workers’ Dignity

Workers’ Dignity is organizing to build a Nashville that values ALL people. They believe people directly impacted by injustice, especially low-wage workers facing abuse by employers, BIPOC and working class neighbors who live in under resourced and overpoliced neighborhoods, and immigrants facing increased ICE raids and detention, are ideally situated to have the knowledge and capacity to create sustaining and equitable change.
