Wikipedia:WikiProject Immigrant Labor Organizing/Navigation

Welcome
This project seeks to highlight the intersections between immigrant rights and labor organizing to reflect Immigration policies of American labor unions and the contributions of the worker center movement to Community organizing in immigrant communities. Prominent immigrant labor leaders and coalitions in the United States are linked broadly, inconsistently, or not at all to various categories (activism, community organizing, labor, non-profit). Over time, this project hopes to expand toward a global perspective on immigrant labor organizing. This work includes:


 * 1) To create and expand articles for related to immigrant labor issues
 * 2) To create SPARQL queries and categories/subcategories for immigrant labor organizing
 * 3) To add and update ethnic group instances in Wikidata, exploring and challenging how ethnicity, race, citizenship, and national origin are preserved in Wikidata and Wikipedia entries through working-class perspectives
 * 4) To consistently link affiliated immigrant and/or labor leaders, organizations, and coalitions to the Organized Labour Portal
 * 5) To highlight diversity of labor organizing networks and increase discoverability of immigration policies and resources

This current task list focuses on the local and national labor organizing networks that have emerged from Los Angeles immigrant communities. While this draws from existing ethnic group highlighted on the Ethnic groups in Los Angeles Wikipedia entry and Template:Chicano and Mexican American topics sidebar, these instances similarly need expanding to reflect racial identities notably Black and Indigenous migration. Limited entries also exist regarding undocumented status and use derogatory language (ex: search queries for "undocumented worker" redirects to Illegal immigration).
