  Los Angeles, California - For employees of the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Friday the 13th (May 13, 2022) was a day of good fortune. That was the day that they voted to ratify a long negotiated union contract between MOCA and the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees. After 2.5 years of organizing their union and negotiating their contract, MOCA employees congregated after working hours and voted unanimously to ratify their contract. Union leaders Olivia Leiter and Ace Ubas talk about the hard fight to obtain a contract, and the inspirational moments that led to this ratification. Anna Marfleet and fellow union member Daphne Lyda talk about their unique contributions to the cause.
