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
We’ll interview labor historian Jeff Stilley about Kansas City’s greatest labor champion you never heard of — Frank Walsh, labor lawyer, defender of radicals and visionary for future labor law. Then, are you curious about the Kansas City Public Schools Bond vote? Find out what it will pay for, about test score gains and progress the district is making. We’ll talk to Superintendent Dr. Jennifer Collier. Our feature is Washington Window with Mark Gruenberg.
