Same Fight, Different Century: Labor Struggles in Appalachia

USW member and good buddy Dusty Morrison joins us to discuss the history of labor struggles in Appalachia/ West Virginia and how the fight continues today. We touch on the correlation between striking miners and teachers/service personnel as well as the anti-labor/anti-union legislation that is coming out of WV's legislative sessions in 2021.
