YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Philadelphia Art Museum is an icon of the City of Brotherly Love, and there's no shortage of art lovers who wouldn't consider a chance to work there to be a dream job.

After a public spreadsheet displaying the vast disparities in salaries at the museum was circulated in 2019 by a group called Art Museum and Transparency, workers at the PMA began to organize for a union.
