E269 - What Does the Election Mean for Labor? w/ Independent Labor Club of NY
🕑 Added 2024-11-13 11:00:10 +0000 UTCOn November 9th, 2024 the Independent Labor Club of NY hosted a panel at Woodbine in Ridgewood, Queens. Sean moderated this discussion between:

Sou Mi of WGA-East and Left Voice
Gregory Butler of Int'l Union of Operating Engineers and Gangbox News
Ellie Pfeffer of Maoist Communist Union, formerly of Amazonians United
What accounts for the realignment seen in 2024? Did large swathes of workers (including Black and Hispanic) vote Trump solely from racism and misogyny? What was the role of organized labor in the recent election? What effects might the results of the election have on the prospects for organizing labor in the future?

Today in Asheville NC, we started the Appalachian Creative Front; a cooperative for independent arts and industry in our weather-torn region. I'd like to align and work with the organized labor movement as much as possible. Y'all should get at me, we could collaborate on many good things!

Hoping to get in on some ILC Chicago action. Is Insta their only outlet?
