Minnesota 15 | ABC For Health | Labor history: Reconstruction, AFSCME, Kohler strike, NALC
from Labor Radio · host WORT-FM Labor Radio
Madison labor activists call for solidarity with the indicted anti-ICE activists the Minnesota 15, the nonprofit ABS For Health which is undergoing a union drive describes its mission, and Labor Radio looks at some labor history in the US: how the undermining of postwar Reconstruction keeps the legacy of racially-based unpaid labor continuing to hold down Black people and the whole working class, Labor Radio looks at the now-nationwide public sector American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in Wisconsin since its founding 90 years ago, the longest strike in US history lasted over six years between the UAW and the Kohler company in Kohler's self-named Wisconsin company town, and how the nationwide National Association of Letter Carriers can trace its origin to an 1889 meeting above a Milwaukee saloon.
