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
Herb Johnson led the fight against Carl Icahn at TWA, then went on to a leadership position in the Missouri AFL-CIO. This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, Herb reflects on labor leadership. Then, author Eric Blanc says last year working-class rebellions erupted in regions with Republican electorates, weak unions, and bans on public sector strikes. We’ll ask him how that happened and if the upsurge continues. All that Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
