I AM Story; Memphis ‘68

A discussion of the continuing Pittsburgh Gazette strike on Today in Pittsburgh Labor.

The Union Strong podcast reports on a healthcare worker rally in Albany, New York.

Then, a discussion of education and training programs with Matthew Clark on the BCTGM Voices Project.

A win for unions and indigenous communities in Brazil, on the Solidarity Center Podcast.

And in our final segment, Cam Juarez talks about growing up as one of "Cesar's kids" on Words and Work.

We’ve got a special bonus track today, from a brand-new podcast that launches next Tuesday, April 4: The I AM Story Podcast follows the history of the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike as told by those who experienced it first-hand. Produced by AFSCME, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the I AM Story Podcast builds a narrative that envelops listeners, transporting them back to the streets of Memphis, the sanctuary of Mason Temple, the homes of the workers and the union hall where these American heroes decided to take a stand against injustice.
