Are people unionizing? (self.General)

Since we want to do a general strike, shouldn't we call for unions to be made? Is there some resources to join or form a union in your workplace? (I will add resources to my list.)

I would suggest:

Joining and organizing within your local community to create connections with others is incredibly powerful, will lay the groundwork for effective resistance.
Join the IWW. They have superb resources on how to form a union in your workplace, are uniquely able to unionize any trade, and would be the most likely to join or initiate a general strike.

So the IWW works for any job? Like Amazon?
