We won’t let them ban our stories | National Nurses United

mar, 27/02/2024 - 21:14
When future students read about the Covid-19 pandemic, nurses want our stories to be emblazoned on those pages. We want our grandchildren to understand the righteous anger we felt, rushing between far too many patients at once — some of them our own dying colleagues — while our employers cut corners on staffing and posted record profits.99taxonomy_terme2fbc23a-2529-4b9a-a1ab-ec92f0e9e197/term/campaigns/racial-justice122taxonomy_term5499c7da-298f-4f4a-bf84-793c74d28609/term/campaigns/social-justice-and-equity113taxonomy_term633ea3dc-8834-49f3-8e5b-ee44b2d80a92/term/campaigns/gender-justicehttps://nnubonnie.medium.com/we-wont-let-them-ban-our-stories-02eef9dfa71bOrginally posted on Medium20721Group of nurses in march holding signs "Union women are powerful women"1200628filefc0a92b6-ca4a-4c66-86b2-0c1805c158cahttps://www.nationalnursesunited.org/sites/default/files/nnu/graphics/hero/0224_Blog_Hero.jpg0088taxonomy_term2db02557-7861-47fe-8e1d-f5207841832d/term/organizations/nnu7928229020paragraph290fac88-b9e3-4025-af2d-732618d005932024-02-24T09:00:00-08:0030taxonomy_terma7598095-b66a-4ca4-b6fe-74f5449c9a37/state/nationwide20722Group of nurses in march holding signs "Union women are powerful women"480480filed7184e11-1b53-4029-8054-8d068d36e981https://www.nationalnursesunited.org/sites/default/files/nnu/graphics/thumbnail/0224_Blog_Thumb.jpg
