.FrancesHaugen called for 'solidarity' with Facebook content moderators in a conversation with fellow whistleblower Daniel Motaung
Motaung said on stage that his legal case against Facebook and Sama was not just an attempt to achieve justice for himself and his colleagues, but also part of his healing journey. “For me, an easy way out is not an option,” he said. “It’s that drive to bring about change. It’s that drive to see justice. It’s that drive to make sure that I feel. It’s that drive to make sure that I become a human again, because I feel like a zombie most of the time.
In one of the event’s most powerful moments, Haugen asked Motaung a series of rapid fire questions about the allegations in his lawsuit that he and his colleagues were hired under false pretenses. “If they had worded the job description and they had said, you will have to look at graphic violence every day, would you have taken the job?” Haugen asked.
Motaung had previously told TIME that, due to the nondisclosure agreement he signed, he could not talk with his family about what he had seen on the job in Kenya, nor why he had lost so much weight.After Motaung returned to the stage, an audience member asked if he would choose to blow the whistle again. His answer was clear. “Yes I would, definitely, without a doubt. I would do it again.” He urged others to speak up, too.
“I speak for labor. I speak for workers,” he went on. “The exploitation is across the board, it’s not only Facebook.” He hinted that he hopes to help facilitate what he called a “global union” of outsourced workers. “Right now they are standing alone, and they feel alone. They are being taken for granted. Something has to happen. I’m sending a message to them: Unionize. Come together. Speak.”
