- Progressive Action feat. Latisha Dipaola, John McCarthy & Joe CampbellProgressive Action had a serious conversation about the newly released contract demands by TWU local 100, which seemed to be a big joke. One of the union's demands was to be able to pick between NYCTA to NJT... For those who may not understand that's equivalent to workers at Delta being able to pick jobs at Virgin Airlines. It just can't happen.We discussed the union rally aka "Fall Jam" at 2 Broadway, which seemed to be more about entertainment, fun, games than actually fighting for an overdue fair contract.This show is a must listen!FollowWebsite: www.ProgressiveAction.infoInstagram: ProgressiveActionTwitter: ProgressiveActEmail: [email protected]1 hr 53 min

About Progressive Action
From the publisher's feed
The Progressive Action show is hosted by two MTA workers Tramell Thompson and Jermell Wilson out of NYC.
This show will focus on issues that affect the workplace and our communities, such as social engineering, racism, capitalism, incarceration, Jim Crow, police brutality, unions & unionism, economic slavery, institutionalized racism, and many other devices used to oppress. Not only will we discuss the issues, we will try to create solutions to these problems, brainstorm and put together real working movements.
Progressive Action will be something that is going to awaken, enlighten, inspire, and motivate us to make change in your community/work place and fight for what's right!
