Listen "Should Creators Join Unions to Avoid Being Taken Advantage Of?"
Episode Synopsis
Unions can be a hot button issue for some, but it’s not something we often connect with creators. Guest-host Charli Prangli joins Nathan to explore the idea of creator unions, what they would look like, how they might function, and the benefits and drawbacks of them. Main TakeawaysIt can be easy for major brands to take advantage of the independent creators they work with. Creator unions would work to fix this power imbalance.While a union could elevate the entire industry, it could also end up restricting access to certain members, and what kind of work they could do.A union could offer shared resources, advice, and support for living and thriving as a creator. Creators who work with brands for free, outside of a union, may be devaluing the industry because brands will look for those who work for nothing.
