Building Bridges Radio: Richard Trumpka - Labor Fighting Corporate Greed

Labor's Agenda Fighting Corporate Greed

with

Richard Trumpka, Secretary Treasurer of the AFL-CIO

and

William Scheuerman, Pres. National Labor College

In a free wheeling discussion on the agenda for the labor movement, Trumpka and Scheuerman analyze the challenges workers face in an economy controlled by corporate interests who have rigged the system to their benefit at the expense of the living standards of workers. They point to the need for education & political mobilization of the working class to change the system, pointing to some hopeful signs such as new attitudes of workers towards unions, political mobilization of workers outside of unions, the increase in membership in unions and an expanded role of the National Labor College in education of workers and developing clarity on key issues of crucial concern to the movement.
