You've seen the news. Employees at companies such as Amazon and Starbucks are making headlines because they demand better working conditions. If successful, Black employees stand to benefit the most.
Research shows that Black union members have better health insurance, higher pay, and a heftier retirement fund compared to Black workers who aren't a part of a union.
