This multimedia presentation tells the story of the Spring 2023 undergraduate course “Labor Research for Action and Policy” (LRAP). The semester-long research project gave students the opportunity to explore issues facing young student-workers in Alameda County who are trying to get an education while facing personal and family economic insecurity.

Undergraduates spend spring break learning firsthand about Bay Area labor history during the 2023 Solidarity Spring at UC Berkeley.

Labor Summer alumni reflect on their experiences and how the internship has shaped their perspectives and professional growth.
