LABOR HERITAGE POWER HOUR
Strikes Across Time — Casa Bonita to the Washington Post to Ancient Rome
On this week’s Labor Heritage Power Hour: three stories of strikes and solidarity in the arts. Casa Bonita performers in Denver walk out for fair pay and safety; journalist Pete Tucker revisits the 1975 Washington Post pressmen’s strike; and historian Sarah Bond’s book Strike: Labor, Unions, and Resistance in the Roman Empire uncovers how Roman workers used collective action thousands of years ago.
