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’s it like to be on strike for almost a year? How do you stay hopeful? How do you pay the bills? What do you tell your kids? This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we’ll interview Haeden Wright, wife of a coal miner for Warrior Met Coal in Alabama and her daughter Avery on how to survive a strike and keep going. We’ll also hear from United Mineworker President Cecil Roberts on the Wall Street parasites behind the strike and hear a medley of coal miner songs. Tune in Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
