About the Show
Heartland Labor Forum (Repeat)
Repeat airing: 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.
This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we’ll profile a hero, a woman who fought for indigenous rights, the environment and democracy. We talk to Guardian reporter Nina Lakhani about her new book Who Killed Berta Caceres; Dams, Death Squads and an Indigenous Defender’s Battle for the Planet. Then, what’s a professor to do in the midst of massive budget cuts, wage cuts, and having to teach in a pandemic? We’ll talk to UMKC faculty about the crisis. Tune in Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
