UAW STRIKE UPDATE & Teachers on Strike in Britain!

This week, On Strike talks with Tom Barker about the UNISON teachers strike in Leicester, England, AND we give an update on the historic United Auto Workers strike in the United States. We speak to UAW workers on the picket lines in Oregon, Illinois, and Massachusetts about their views of the strike in its second week, and talk about the strike’s current level of escalation and our analysis of the UAW leadership’s approach. One of the key questions facing UAW workers is how best to shut down the bosses’ profits to force them to concede to workers’ demands, and what strategy and escalation are needed to make that happen. On Strike is a production of Workers Strike Back, hosted by socialist councilmember Kshama Sawant and Bia Lacombe — news and analysis to beat the bosses.
