“The History of Labor Day”


Listen Later

Keris dives into the real history of Labor Day, exploring the lives, struggles and exclusions of workers from the 1800s to today. From unsafe factory floors and the Haymarket Affair to modern gig work and systemic inequities, this episode examines who has been included, and who has been left out, of labor protections. Join Keris for a discussion on dignity, equity, mental wellbeing and why honoring rest is an act of resistance.
