Earlier today, Indiana Grad Workers voted on whether to continue their strike into a second week. 967 voted yes to continuing and 27 voted no, a 97.3 percent majority affirming the struggle.

The strike is now authorized to last through April 27th - when another vote will take place - unless the administration agrees to negotiations. Hundreds of people turned out to picket lines yesterday and today as well.

Today on Strike Mic, we are airing audio from yesterday morning's picket line rally at Sample Gates. Undergraduates spoke out in solidarity with their grad instructors, while grad workers contributed their perspectives on the role of graduate labor in the university.

This audio for this segment was produced by Jeremy Hogan of the Bloomingtonian.

Everyday that we can, WFHB’s Strike Mic will bring you to the frontlines of this movement, allowing you to understand the issues and the action through the voices of the participants themselves.

WFHB will continue to air updates as the strike unfolds in the coming days. You can learn more at www.indianagradworkers.org.
