About this episode

This episode discusses the ongoing work after labor victories, featuring insights from various labor leaders and activists.

Winning a strike. Building a union. Defending organizers. This week on Labor Radio Podcast Weekly, we hear why the real work begins after the victory. LaborForce recaps the action at this year’s Labor Notes, plus live from the stage, UAW Local 2093's John Krause about the American Axle strike that delivered every demand after 18 years of concessions. Working People: Hamilton Nolan and Alex Press ask why union membership fell during the most pro-union administration in decades—and what organized labor needs to do differently. Work Stoppage tackles another Labor Notes focus, the fightback in Minnesota. On We Rise Fighting, Rick and Brian examine the federal indictment of 15 Minnesota immigrant rights and labor organizers—and labor's response. And from Labor Jawn, the story of Carl Mackley, the young Philadelphia striker whose death inspired 25,000 workers to pledge they'd keep fighting. Shows You Should Know: Heartland Labor Forum; The Valley Labor Report; Concrete Gang and more from Labor Notes on the Labor Heritage Power Hour.
