What does the genocide in Gaza have to do with the working class here at home? Well, quite a lot. Imperialism is a home game and the same corporations and international interests that make bank off of blood oppress the U.S. workforce for that same bottom line.
This week in a special one-hour interview episode, three guest experts join the Project Censored Radio show to discuss the U.S. supply chain and war: labor educator Gifford Hartman, researcher and CGPU-UAW union member Abdullah Farooq, and 40-year rail and marine transportation veteran Fritz Edler.
Together they outline not only the current actions and efforts of workers to connect the dots between oppression here at home and abroad but also the silenced and buried history of workplace organizing against war, including direct action and strikes. Our guests also dive into the importance of public ownership of transportation such as rail, the nefarious ways in which automation fuels both the war machine and destitution here in the U.S., and what a just transition away from war could mean not only for workers here but indeed around the whole world.
The post Connecting the Dots: The War on Workers Is The War Abroad appeared first on KPFA.
