Two from the recent 2022 United Auto Workers Constitutional Convention in Detroit: on My Labor Radio, Mark Gervaart gets into the weeds of this year’s convention to explain changes to the election process; then, on the Trucked Up podcast, members from Locals 2209 and 14 discuss the different feel this convention has had, compared to past years.
On AFT in Action, Richard Bensinger talks about his involvement in the Starbucks unionization movement and how the workers got their initial momentum to begin organizing.
Lastly, author Matt Christman joins The Dig to explain how the United States’ history has led to our present economic situation.
Highlights from labor radio and podcast shows around the country, part of the national Labor Radio Podcast Network of shows focusing on working people’s issues and concerns.
