There\u2019s an extensive section on the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bread_and_Roses\">Bread and Roses<\/a> movement for women\u2019s and worker\u2019s rights during the industrialization era. There were so many times in the past when \u201cjust the way things are\u201d included child labor, extreme exploitation, exceptionally dangerous jobs, and overwhelming work hours. It\u2019s important to remember that women and men went hungry on strike, died in unsafe working conditions, and wrote, organized, and spoke out to create the world we may take for granted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">I can\u2019t help but think the rights to our own time, attention, voice and free thoughts are at stake even now. Powerful men become billionaires extracting every ounce of focus and scrap of attention from us using algorithms and digital sleight of hand. Now piles of AI tools are being foisted upon us, whether we ask for them or not. They aim to capitalize while eroding our human ability to read with nuance and understanding, to reason, to generate new thoughts, create art. As if making art, or poems, or reading literature to broaden our minds were the exhausting tasks we were just begging to be relieved of. (sarcasm implied) What are we to do against such powerful forces. <\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">Read a book. Ride your bike. Jump in a river. Tell a friend. Make a silly drawing. Go to the library. Go to the cinema. Cook something new. Write about it in your own handwriting. Call someone on the phone. Take a nap with your cat. Lay under the shade of a tree. Perhaps eat a just made baguette while walking down the street. <\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">People fought and died for those 8 hours you have after work, Don\u2019t let tech corporations siphon it back from you. It\u2019s all yours. We need bread, but also roses.
