Labor Heritage Power Hour

Monopolizing inflation; David Bacon’s wall of photos


Listen Later

Broadcast on August 25, 2022


While hosts Chris Garlock and Ed Smith are off this week, check out The Heartland Labor Forum’s show:
The Federal Reserve is trying to slow inflation by raising interest rates while at the same time corporate profits are at an all-time high: is our monopolized economy really what’s driving inflation? Then, what do you know about the border wall between the US and Mexico? In his new book More Than a Wall, photojournalist David Bacon shows how the border is more than a wall that separates. It’s the people and their history of common struggles against racism, labor trafficking and a broken immigration system. Also, Safety First with Mary Erio.
“Radio That Talks Back to the Boss,” the Heartland Labor Forum has been around for more than 30 years, airing weekly on KKFI 90.1FM Kansas City Community Radio. HLF is one of the members of the Labor Radio Podcast Network, more than 150 labor radio shows and podcasts across the country and around the world that – like Your Rights At Work -- focus on issues affecting working people.

Produced by The Heartland Labor Forum and Chris Garlock; engineered by Michael Nasella.
