Of union busters, bombs and white papers

On today’s show: Mel Buer of The Morning Riot podcast joins The Valley Labor Report to talk about a wild white paper from a union busting group
that compares union organizers to IEDs in Iraq. On the latest Solidarity Center Podcast, Carmen Foro, secretary-general of the Central Union of Workers in Brazil, describes how an Amazon community is standing up to plans for a river project that would destroy their livelihoods. While education should not be partisan, it is most definitely political. On Educating from the Heart sits down with three members of the Florida Education Association’s Republican Cadre to discuss their challenges and successes. On Labor Vision, James and Charles talk unions, coalition building, broadband infrastructure and more. We wrap up this week with Working to Live In Southwest Washington, which returns this week to explain why the Evergreen Schools Replacement Levy is important to everyone.

Highlights from labor radio and podcast shows around the country, part of the national Labor Radio Podcast Network of shows focusing on working people’s issues and concerns.
