Description

On today's episode Prof. Richard Wolff joins the show to discuss  major developments in the labor movement as workers grow increasingly  assertive of their rights. Members of the International Alliance of  Theatrical Stage Employees voted almost unanimously  to authorize a strike that would shut down Hollywood, Kellogg’s factory  workers are on strike, and workers at Nabisco recently wrapped up a  successful strike action. Will this trend continue?
Professor Richard Wolff is an author & co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work. You can check out his work at rdwolff.com.
