Is there such a thing as philosophy of labor? Find out this week on the Heartland Labor Forum for a lively discussion with retired AFSCME member Richard Mellor. Then, Harry Bridges was a labor legend all along the West Coast docks. For decades the native Australian defied J. Edgar Hoover’s deportation attempts and led the International Longshore and Warehouse Union to turn killer jobs into sustainable ones. We’ll talk to author Robert Cherny about his new book Harry Bridges: Labor Radical, Labor Legend. Our feature is Washington Window with Mark Gruenberg.
