Heartland Labor Forum
Heartland Labor Forum is Kansas City's only program about the workplace. It is produced by and for our working people. We have been agitating on the air since 1989. Find out who is busting unions and who is fighting back. We are a member of the Labor Radio Podcast Network #laborradiopod
This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we talk to David Van Arsdale about his book on temp work. It’s a chilling look and argues that temp agencies should have been abolished with slavery, or at the very least, put under strict government control. He says they’re super-profitable traps of despair and poverty for the workers. Then, with tensions ratcheting toward war with Iran—Michael Zweig, of US Labor Against War gives us a historical, working class perspective about how war with Iran threatens workers and our planet. Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
