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 historian Michael Goldfield about his new book The Southern Key: Class, Race, and Radicalism in the 1930s and 40s. Goldfield argues the key to understanding American politics for the last 75 years lies in the Southern class struggle in that period. Then, we’ll talk to Jim Kolve, the Missouri AFL-CIO’s dislocated worker coordinator about Missouri Jobs Centers, which he calls the hospitals for a sick economy. Tune in Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
