For Pride Month this year, the AFL-CIO is spotlighting various LGBTQ+ workers who have worked and continue to work at the intersection of civil and labor rights in the United States. Today's profile is Temika M. Cook of the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council.
Temika M. Cook has been a dynamic force in the San Diego labor movement for over 15 years, championing workers’ rights and social justice within her community. As a dedicated member of California School Employees Association Chapter 724 and Teamsters Local 388M, Cook consistently challenges the status quo, advocating tirelessly alongside her union siblings. In her role as a senior cook for the San Diego Unified School District, she not only nourishes the minds of students, but serves as a beacon of inspiration and resilience, demonstrating that the fight for workers’ rights and community well-being go hand in hand. Cook’s unwavering commitment and leadership continue to pave the way for a more just and equitable future.
