Mass Deportations and Mass Labor Movements with Sam Seder & Eric Blanc (Ep 272)

An American Gestapo is taking shape as ICE continues to torture and detain law-abiding people–whether they are green card holders or protested against genocide. Sam Seder of The Majority Report joins to talk about this and the right’s dominance in online media, Chuck Schumer’s idiocy, and why social security has always been sexy. Then labor professor Eric Blanc joins to talk about how worker-to-worker organizing must reshape unions, an argument he lays out in his book We Are the Union: How Worker-to-Worker Organizing is Revitalizing Labor and Winning Big.  Featuring: Sam Seder, The Majority Report, https://x.com/SamSeder Eric Blanc, Author, https://x.com/_ericblanc Buy Eric's book: https://www.ucpress.edu/books/we-are-the-union/paper Wednesday May 7th - Francesca and Matt Lieb are coming to Cobb’s Comedy Club.
