Our shows today are themed around the holiday the nation just celebrated yesterday; but Thanksgiving looks a bit different depending on where you stand, so from Equal Rights and Justice, Building Bridges host Mimi Rosenberg connects the struggles of native peoples both here in the U.S. and in Palestine.
And from America Works, an interview with Mike Williams, a dirt track auto racer at the famed Ransomville Speedway in western New York, interviewed at his home on the Tuscarora Nation reservation.
Today’s Labor History in 2:00 is actually from July 11, 1968, the day that the American Indian Movement began at a meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota, when a group of 200 Native Americans gathered together to discuss a response to the US governments’ history of broken treaties and the devastating consequences on Native peoples.
We wrap up with the Labor Heritage Power Hour, which talked with Kevin Cummings, a member of the Machinists Union for 35 years; Kevin is also a Native American who traces his lineage to both the Lumbee and Cherokee peoples, which means that he’s spent his life fighting for rights, whether it was his fellow workers or his Native brothers and sisters. We end the show with Kevin’s powerful song Stolen Angels, about the many indigenous women who are still missing.
