On today’s special strike edition:
From the BCTGM Voices Project, an update on the five-month-old strike against International Flavors and Fragrances by Local 390G of the Bakery Workers in Memphis.
Then, Portland teachers walked out on Wednesday, the first time they’ve ever struck, so we’re bringing OEA Grow -- the podcast from the Oregon Education Association -- back for the second week in a row, with their special bonus episode talking with educators from the Portland Association of Teachers about the conditions that led to the Portland walkout.
Next up we have two reports on the historic win at the “Big 3” automakers by the United Auto Workers: first we’ll hear about life on the picket line on the UAW 1700 Podcast. Then, what’s in the new auto contracts? We find out on the Heartland Labor Forum.
Our last segment from Labor History in 2:00, is about yet another strike, this one from 1921, when striking milk drivers dumped thousands of gallons of milk on the streets of New York City. Our bonus segment is another Labor History in 2:00, this one about America first general strike.
