On Tuesday's show: A strike by hotel workers at Hilton-Americas Houston has ended after 40 days. Late last week, the parties reached a deal to raise wages for housekeepers, stewards, and laundry attendants in a result that could have repercussions for the rest of Houston’s hospitality industry -- and for labor in general. We learn the details of the deal and discuss what it means.
Also this hour: A new book called Police Against the Movement explores police violence during the Civil Rights Movement with some focus on how the Houston Police Department tried to undermine activism here at the time.
And, every week across Greater Houston, vendors visit festivals and other events to sell their wares. We visit the recent Bayou City Art Festival to talk to vendors about what that life is like.
