Description

Who are the union organizers left out of most American history books? This May Day, Francesca talks to labor reporter and author Kim Kelly about her new book Fight Like Hell: The Untold Labor of American History and the people, from sex workers and prisoners, who shaped workers rights. Plus an update on the desperate measures both Starbucks and Amazon are taking to stop union drives among their workers, as victories across the nation galvanize millions. Also along for the ride is comedian James Fritz to imagine a social media network completely free of sociopathic tech billionaires. Finally a *BONUS BISH* about the return of White House Press Correspondents Dinner. Biden’s got some zingers!
