Labor Heritage Power Hour

Broadcast on December 9, 2021

Hosted by Chris Garlock and Ed Smith

This week's show: Live from Battle Creek, Michigan, an update from Trevor Bidelman, president of Baker’s Local 3G on why Kellogg’s strikers overwhelmingly rejected the latest contract offer.

Then, teaching history shouldn’t have to mean re-living it on the job. Workers at Colonial Williamsburg are being worked to the bone and exploited, just like in the old days, says their union, UNITE HERE Local 25; Benjy Cannon reports.
The ongoing strike wave reminds many of The Labor Upsurge of the 1930s and ’40s in the United States; we talk to political scientist Michael Goldfield about today’s lessons.
Plus, Before The Fall, a brand-new song from the R.J. Phillips Band, and listeners call in on a range of workplace issues.

Produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Michael Nassella & Kaliah Chapman.
