Making Progressive Change in an Era of Turbulence
Tahjahanay Terry & Andrew Cowgill
The New Year introduced a period of increased political and economic uncertainty. Since 1977, Eastern Service Workers Association has led a determined effort to unite the lowest paid workers with students, teachers, professionals, clergy and other concerned residents to address government policies impacting all our futures. What have we learned from progressive struggles of the past that we can and must apply to today? Join us to hear about how we can act during turbulent times.
Tahjahnay Terry grew up in Atlantic City. After graduating from ACIT in 2020 with an associate’s degree, she started working as a substitute teacher in Atlantic County’s school system. Since December she has been ESWA’s Speaking Engagement Coordinator.
Andy Cowgill grew up in Minnesota. After gaining a variety of experiences in community service, political organizing and activism in Ecuador, San Jose (CA), Boston and elsewhere, he became a full-time volunteer organizer in 1999. For the last 13 years, Andy has been the Operations Manager of Eastern Service Workers Association (ESWA) in Pleasantville.
