University of Colorado law professor Ahmed White discusses his new book
on the Industrial Workers of the World, “Under The Iron Heel – The Wobblies and the Capitalist War on Radical Workers.” Today’s show is the first of a 3-part interview with White on Labor Exchange, Colorado's only labor-focused radio show, airing Mondays at 6:00 PM Mountain Time on KGNU Community Radio in Boulder, Colorado.
On this week’s Labor History in Two: The year was 1998. If you were trying to drive to work on that Tuesday morning in mid-town Manhattan you were probably late. Forty thousand construction workers took to the streets in a massive protest.
