“I see a lot of hope in struggle and people willing to be empathetic...it comes back to that ideal of humanity and care. And when we start caring about other people and because we want them to be as happy as we are, that's something I'm seeing more of in Australia. There's hope there.”
Jordie Abela is co-host of Solidarity Breakfast out of Melbourne, Australia. Solidarity Breakfast is a Rank and File Worker and Trade Union Show, covering current affairs, progressive issues and news and events from the labour movement.
About the Labor Radio Podcast Network
Launched in April 2020, the Labor Radio Podcast Network focuses on working class issues that are often overlooked in the corporate-controlled media. The goal of the network is to help raise the voices of working people and strengthen organized labor to demand and achieve better treatment from workplaces and elected officials.
The Labor Radio Podcast Network is both a one-stop shop for audiences looking for labor content and a resource for labor broadcasters and podcasters. Resources include a weekly podcast summarizing shows produced by network members, marketing on social media, a website listing network shows and how audiences can find them, a database for contacting expert guests, access to a private listserv for Network members, and a weekly video call to increase solidarity and support amongst members.
If you are a journalist interested in learning more or if you’re a labor radio or podcast producer and want to join the network, contact us at info@laborradionetwork.org.
