THIS WEEK’S LABOR HERITAGE POWER HOUR: Union: The film, the campaign
Lawrence Smoot | Published on 10/18/2024
On this week's show, we talk with Brett Story and Stephen Maing, the directors of the new film Union, which follows the Amazon Labor Union's historic journey to victory, as, up against one of the most powerful companies on the planet, a group of Amazon workers embark on an unprecedented campaign to unionize their warehouse in Staten Island, New York. PLUS: A visit with a labor lawyer who’s teaching a class in labor movies, and, on Labor History in 2:00, Labor’s “Magna Carta.”
Union screens at the Avalon on Wednesday, October 23 at 8p; tickets here.
