BIPOC Media on the Fight for Fair Wages & Anti-racist Unions

Season 4 Episode 433 | 26m 46s

Over 450,000 workers have gone on strike in 2023. Many are celebrating this revival of labor power, but what does it mean for workers of color — often hardest hit — and least well treated even by traditional labor organizations? In this “Meet the BIPOC Press” episode co-produced by The Laura Flanders Show and URL Media, we explore the diversity of today’s unionized workforce and their demands.

Aired: 03/31/23 | Expires: 04/05/24
Distributed nationally by American Public Television
