digits. schools were reopened across the country and then began the second wave. on a per million population basis, the country has one of the worst outbreaks in the world. these pexperts say the reopenin of the school system was largely to blame. this school alone more than 150 students came down with the virus and 25 members of staff. now when schools reopen in september, that could give renewed impetus to the coronavirus pandemic here in this country. it seems to be struggling to control. >> thanks to our correspondents for those reports. thank you so much for watching tonight. "united shades of america" starts right now. >> this episode about the gig economy was filmed in september 2019. vulnerability of these workers has been identified by covid-19. at the time we were filming, a

third of people between the gig economy were doing it a primary source of income and the people whose primary source was gig work were people of color. due to covid-19, we have come to are lie even more on gig economy to keep us going. the people who are in charge of these companies are getting richer by the day and the heat recents get a wage and basic protections. gig workers are eligible for unemployment insurance, but it ain't easy to get. millions of people we spoke to said they were denied. they have continued work iing a the risk of their own health and that of their families, jeopardizing their lives to make ours easier. >> remember free time? remember me time? these days many of us are spending that time working. being independent contractors with no benefits and few protections in the gig economy.

if you're fired, the severance package is you're fired. nowadays you may need three jobs to make one good one. >> how many hours are you doing? >> 40 hours a week. just a hustle. it's whatever it is. you want $200 real quick, yes, i do. >> never off the clock to do this. or this. oops, didn't mean to send that.

that's a lot of dogs. who knew i wouldn't be good at it. >> lots of us think the gig economy is a new idea because they told us it is. how he invented office space, but gig work is as old as this country. america was built on people. literally on moving from job to job for low pay. it was always gig to gig. the technology may be new, but the work is the same. a third of workers need multiple

gigs to make ends meet. why are we falling for an idea as old as time with an app attached? i have always heard about the dog park. just never been to one. i don't have any animals. >> do you want animals? >> i have three kids. i feel like that's enough animals. >> austin, texas, is feel of people like her. he's young, she's a musician and gig work pays the bills while he s pursues her dream of fame and fashion. >> this is an a app? it's one of the supplemental jobs? >> i have done food deliveries, ra ridesharing, a million different things all at once. >> while gigs sound good enough, they are only good when they are good. when they are bad, it's on you. >> i had one rideshare experience. it was christmas eve. there was this dude that gets in my car. he seems like a little odd. and he was the one that requested the ride. so we get to this party.

the one guy gets out and he's been silent. the other sits behind me and whispers on my ear. this is the part where i stay behind and i rape you. and i'm like reaching down for the taser that i have in my car that i'm not supposed to have in my car technically. and in that split second, he laughs really hard and throws $20 in my face and gets out of the car and slams the door. i'm like, shaking. i go and call the rideshare app. well, does the picture match this dude? no, it doesn't. he was the one that's quiet. i can't report anything. s. >> uber revealed in 2018 they received more than 3,000 reports of sexual assault during uber rides in the u.s. with drivers reporting at the same rate as the riders. aubrey stopped driving late at night, when drivers make the most money. she moved on to dog walking. >> there was one weird thing.

it was a request for a walk. he was like, hey, you don't need to take him on a walk. just play fetch with him in the yard. he stands in the window and is staring at me. he's only wearing a robe. he's like i'm working from home today. >> it seems wrong any of these apps that protects people from these situations. >> there are background checks on the workers, but there aren't on the people using them. >> why would you want them? >> would you say to people who are using these apps? >> please tip. the rates are get iting cut. put some pants on. >> some other human will walk your dog, shop for your groceries. and big tech is cashing into the growing app dependence. their founders are rich.

the co-founder of instacart is worth over $4 million. while the average worker makes $14 an hour. >> the clock is ticking. . >> vanessa left her executive chef job because the 16-hour days she rarely saw her kids. >> is so we need to get limes. >> how many do we need? >> 6 limes. look for the smooth skin. if it's squishy. >> is that squishy enough? i trust you on the squeezability. >> don't lose my tip. the only way to really make a good amount of money doing this, i would normally be doing two to three orders at a time. i would be swapping between customers, texting multiple customers. then probably have a hand basket in here. >> what do you make on an average order? >> between $7 to $15 maybe. >> how long does it take? >> it depends on the order, but it's like 20 to 30 minutes.

it koub get in the store, checked out and make it to their house. >> then you're making decent money. >> so i'm slowing you down. >> not too much. this is not a big order so it's okay. >> more and more apps come out, more people turn to apps for work, app companies keep tweaking their pay algorithms. this means workers can never predict what they are going to make. >> that one is rock hard. >> this is brown bananas. >> obviously, try to keep away from the frozenen items. don't squish the chips though. >> do you shop more carefully for other people? >> absolutely. i'm looking for damaged things that i can get on sale. >> we're nobody has licked it.

>> we're done. >> $62.06. >> so we do this. you scan the reseept and let them know i'm on my way. >> i'm going to catch up with her later. >> good luck on your delivery. >> i hate to see you go, but i love to watch you walk away. >> right now, i have another gig to get to. a gig gig. ♪ ♪ >> most of the people whose primary source of income comes

from the gig economy are people of color. the apps can rely heavily on these workers because they know they have fewer job choices because, riacism. >> let's convene the meeting of guys with glasses. >> i'm talking to people about the life in the gig economy. >> i work a full-time job and do uber and lyft. >> that's a lot of facts. >> jason earns a large portion of their income from gig work. he also has a full-time job as a security guard for a large tech company in town. >> you think that would be the dream job and pay the dream wages. >> it's probably one of the highest paid security jobs in austin. and it wasn't enough. >> so tell me your daily schedule working your full-time job and then going to rideshare. >> i clock out at 10:40. i go home and by no later than 11:10 i'm out and working until like 10:30 in the morning. i go home and try to get an hour or two of sleep. >> wait, when are you sleeping?

you're sleep iing two hours? >> two to three hours. i tell people that's my side job, but it's a second full-time job. >> if i could make this every time, i'm good. >> i usually just base it off my bills. >> so whatever you owe, i need to make that. >> i need to make that tonight. >> how fast do you get the money? >>st instant. i cash out that same night. >> turn on the app and get in the car and get that money. >> it's easy access to fast money. but the long run, is this going to get us retirement, no. >> we have also trained people to not expect benefits, sick leave, paid vacation. gig make it is sound like it's not a job. you're working over 40 hours a week. it's the job economy. it's not the gig economy.

austin is the state capital of texas. according to locals, it's the world capital of live music. sorry, nashville. ♪ >> the artist may be trying to keep austin weird, but it's oneover the fastest growing for a super boring reason. tech companies. the population is growing by over 100 people every single day. austin is the middle of a massive construction boom. everywhere you look, luxury buildings are going up. those got to be good gigs, right? >> the gig economy has attempted to turn a whole bunch of people into their own independent

contractor. >> it made them excited about that. >> gotten them away from the idea of having an mirror. employer. so i like to think of it as the original gig economy. >> when you go from gig to gig, house to house, build iing to building, road construction to road construction. >> i thought construction was a good union job. >> it has been in the past. it is in some parts of the country. it ain't in texas. >> that's where jose comes in. in the absence of union protection, his organization, the workers defense project, is often the only safety net nor workers in texas. >> i would imagine that all those people who fought for workers rights and some of it was fighting. was it just hash tagging and petition filling out. we already fought for that stuff. like what happened?

back at the turn of the 20th century, rich people were super greedy. the oil ask steel, this guy and this one, the billionaires were getting richer and richer. and the workers figured if they were doing the hard work, they should also get a slice of the capitalist pie. rich people said, no. hence the fighting. >> it was a bloody struggle. people literally died fighting for the basic protections that people have today. minimum wage, overtime, the right to join a union, the right to g to the bathroom and have a lunch break. >> we can thank fdr and the new deal for passing laws allowing unions to thrive and putting the country back to work. >> of course, we will continue to support collective bargaining. to seem to improve working petitions for the workers of america. >> as soon as those protections

were won, employers immediately started to try to claw them back. >> what specifically don't they like about labor standards? what don't they like? >> what didn't rich people like about that? they couldn't get as mitrich anymore. >> think about rich people,.net don't want a little rich. they want maximum rich. >> when american companies couldn't exploit workers, they took the show on the road. they shipped jobs overseas where workers didn't have rights. like china, mahmolaysia and oth brown countries. leave iing american workers basically back where they started without protections or benefits. where union membership in the construction industry stands at 4%. >> liz know firsthand working

without union protection means. >> tell me about what it's like to work construction in austin. >> our construction industry is the deadliest in the country. over 60% of people working in the industry lack basic safe isis safety train iing. >> over 50% report not earning

enough money to provide for their family. then the incidents of what we refer to as wage staff and that literally means you go to work and don't get paid. it's pretty high. >> the workers defense project has recovered over $2 million in back wages and injury compensation for workers like francisco. >> as a black man, this all feels like remnants of slavery. american slavery was absolutely about maximizing profits and creating a narrative around it why it was okay to maximize. these people aren't even human. so i see the connection. >> the history of slavery in this country is deeply connected. especially in the south to the

way we view labor and the rules we have set up that govern, that protect or do not protect people who work. texas is the only state that disease not require workers compensation coverage. we call it going bare. an employer can choose to go bare. so they get hurt. >> they can just let that person go. >> they are not liable. >> you shouldn't have been standing under that heavy thing when it fell. >> have you been injured on the job? >> to have to be worried about injured, i take care of myself.

how do you do it every day? >> last question. what would you say to the people in power, governor, legislators, the president about your situation and how to fix it. 12k3w 12k3w

>> can we get a shot of this over here so people don't think i learned how to speak spanish. >> thank you very much. if your dry eye symptoms keep coming back, inflammation in your eye might be to blame. looks like a great day for achy, burning eyes over-the-counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes and may provide temporary relief. ha! these drops probably won't touch me. xiidra works differently, targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease. what is that? xiidra, noooo! it can provide lasting relief. xiidra is the only fda approved treatment specifically for the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. one drop in each eye, twice a day. don't use if you're allergic to xiidra. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied to the eye, and unusual taste sensation. don't touch container tip to your eye or any surface. after using xiidra, wait 15 minutes before reinserting contacts. got any room in your eye?

talk to an eye doctor about twice-daily xiidra. i prefer you didn't! xiidra. not today, dry eye.

companies wanted to take tear of employees, but that's gone. >> it depends on industry.

when you have the tech industry, they bend over backwards. they have 100% covered health care for families. they have pet sthurns. they repay student loans i worked for a company where we had a massage day. >> if you can get inside those tech companies, you can get that insurance. >> if you can breakthrough that wall, you're there. >> but if you're outside the wall doing the thing that makes them able to give their employees all those benefits, you're screwed. >> that's a completely different hand to mouth existence. >> after the affordable care act was passed in 2010, the number of workers in the united states without health insurance fell dra mmatically. >> obamacare is a disaster. >> but since 2017 that number started to rise again. the trump administration has made health care harder to access because that's what you'd want to do. and middle income workers just like this one are among the hardest hit. this is where vanessa lives with her three kids and her boyfriend. >> you want to make this

marinade for the chicken. it's easy. this is our alternative to soy sauce. the coconut aminos. here's the chicken. that's clearance chicken, but budget life, yo. >> as long as you got it before the date. there's a window. massage the chicken. >> nice to meet you. >> he's iran b-mexican-american. so we're going to have persian food. >> tell me what are your various jobs you have now. grocery store shopper. >> i'm a virtual assistant. then i'm a personal chef. so i go to people's houses and cook for them. so i try to balance between the money is in the personal chef work, but i have had to take less because of choir and band and all those things. >> being the parent is also a

full-time gig. >> the flexibility of gig work comes with the stress of a fluctuating paycheck. >> i want a paycheck us i know that's coming in and spipt it to be the same and plan my life around that. >> your dream job is the job that all americans thought they got. we can move into other aspects of racism, sexism, all theisms. >> but on a basic level, people thought you grow up and get a job. your boss gives you a raise every now and again and work at that job for 30 years. maybe you buy a boat. >> this family the american dream is an all-hands on deck affair. 8-year-old oliver is gigging. >> these are your famous cookies you're selling? >> yes. >> why do you sell them? >> to help with bills. >> you hear them talking about bills and stuff? >> my mom did have struggles. >> allergen-friendly cookies. >> that's all i have to say about the cookies.

>> what happened? >> talk about when you're making these meals for your family. >> i'm at the grocery store a lot so i'm look iing for good deals. oliver is sick all the time. we don't have health insurance. so we just put more money into better quality food. we're just trying not to get sick is. we were buying regular bread at $1.85. now we pay $5.99 for gluten free bread. so we go through two loaves a week. and that's me saying, hey, didn't you just have is a sandwich. two leaves a week, four weeks in a morks how much do i make in a month, can we do this? >> we're low carb. we don't eat bread. >> we're low carb for our wallets. >> i think the whole idea of the

gig economy is that it's solving problems, but really most of those problems are being solved with the person use iing the ap. the idea it was solving problems if i want to work, i work. but in reality it's not. >> i don't really feel like there's a lot of people doing gigs for extra money. it's usually some type of essential situation. so i just picked up a third job or a fourth job. >> you're hustling. >> i think i'm close enough if i just work enough, we can get here and play house and live here and everything will be fine. but secretive usually, we don't have benefits or health insurance or an ira or any of that. i play along with living in this neighborhood. we aren't at the same level as these people. we love our neighbors. but it's just different. it just is. it's just not the same. >> just checking on the

progress. we're going to put chicken on the grill so you can have chicken and rice. >> more and more americans working in tech are gig workers. kavan is one of them. his full-time tech job is through a sub contractor. that means that this multi, multi, multibillion company can get work from people without the full benefits they give employees. meanwhile, the ceos get rich er and richer. he has some benefits, but to help pay the bills, he's a second gig job giving rides to drunk strangers. usa. >> what is your gig economy job? >> i do rideshare. mostly on the weekends. >> that's supposed to be the time you're relacking. >> there's a saying. i'll sleep when i'm dead. most people are probably familiar with that. >> that sleep is not as good though, from what i understand. >> it's not. >> it looks great. >> thank you.

>> i try to think about like how different things would have done had i had the opportunity to get benefits. oliver needs oral surgery. there's no way to make that happen unless we apply for a small loan or ten credit cards. so the the only option is for us to try to get health insurance through his company. >> talk about that. the fact that you met a year ago. >> was it app based? >> it was. >> i used to be should we get married. should we share benefits. that's the more important question. >> it's right before we met. we didn't forget. do you want to eat one? >> go eat one. >> i understand this conversation is very fa fascinating. but i'm a little worried we forgot about the cookies. >> sorry to interrupt. >> i was thinking the same thing. let's not forget about the cookies. >> do you lick all the shut fwar

off? >> we won't judge you if you just lick the sugar off. >> this is a good cookie. behind every 2020 census taker's mask is a friendly neighbor. they're teachers, retirees, vets, people committed to doing right by getting the count right. if you haven't responded yet, they'll be stopping by to ask some simple questions that will inform how billions in federal funds are spent on local services every year for the next decade. so when they come knocking, say hi from a safe distance and do your part to support your community. time is running out. shape your future. start here at 2020census.gov. plan matters more than ever.

>> you have no idea. in two years i replaced that six-figure salary i was working for. >> talk about what an mlm is. >> it's a triangular-shaped business model, so here's like the owner. this is their cousin, brother, sister, best friend. and then there's things called down lines. so they build up teams under them and each of those people are supposed to build their own teams. you may a sign up fee. and the money flows up from the bottom and then this guy sit issing at the top is getting a chunk of that sign up fee every single daytime. >> she sounds like a pyramid scheme, but she's definite ly nt calling them because they have lawyer who is will sue you. and besides pyramid schemes are illegal. and mlms are illegal. and again, lawyers. >> i better get a face mask. >> home parties are still a

popular way to sell products. but more importantly to recruit new people to your team. the more recruits, the more money flows up to you. who want wants to be the dealer when you can be the whole cartel. amanda who quit her job as a cpa is the host of this one. >> at the very bottom you have new entrants. the failure rate is really high. so few people go from this level to this level to this level. >> so they fall off. >> how long have you been involved? >> like a month. >> so i bought it from that lady over there. >> yeah, i have had that. >> i would imagine it's a small community that has to be frustrating. >> it is. >> this party was fun. i was wine drunk. now i have to take their word for it they are among the people

humanity between the people who see that and go, no, this is not worth me losing money. and eem who see it and go i can be that 1%. i will be that millionaire. >> who stop listening after $1 million dollars. >> it doesn't work. >> evidence to the contrary, people are still doing it. >> we're not talking ab the losses. when we did hear, there was a woman who lost $25,000 on one of these nutrition mlms. didn't sell one item. this was all on stocking up, advertising, trying to get a down line, her husband still doesn't know. people don't like talking about this. it's part of human nature. we don't want to say we were suckered into something. people don't call and say i was scammed. >> because shame is really powerful. are plan matters more than ever.
