About the Show

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

What do Starbucks, and Trader Joes have in common? Right their workers are organizing unions and some with great success. What else do they all have in common? They both profess to have progressive values but they are union busters. We’ll talk to the young workers spearheading the organizing and find out why they organize and what they’re up against as all three retail giants battle their workers. Also interview with SAG-AFTRA about the strike.
