In this first year of the Labor Notes Podcast, our weekly show on rank-and-file news and organizing tactics, we’ve covered mass strikes, contract fights, and organizing breakthroughs even in this era of escalating repression at work and on the streets.
Retail workers are leading organizing drives. Building trades workers, letter carriers and grocery workers are pushing for more transparency and democracy in their unions. Immigrant workers and allies are strategizing ways to build power with their co-workers and neighbors to fight back against the brutality of immigration raids.
In this anniversary episode, we look back at a year of workers banding together and raising expectations for what we can win.
Here are links to past episodes we highlight in this one:

Casino Dealers Brought Back the Recognition Strike and Won (December 19, 2025)
Starbucks Workers are on a Nationwide Strike for a First Contract (November 14, 2025)
