Scott Bryson and Elizabeth Bunn from AFL-CIO, and Rachel Babale from the National Labor Relations Board talk about organized labor
At a Michigan State University "study away" class held in Washington, D.C., Scott Bryson from the AFL-CIO talks about political activism and young people's involvement in electoral politics and explains why organized labor advocates for all workers. Elizabeth Bunn, director of the AFL-CIO organizing Department, talks about the level of unionization in the U.S. and how it relates directly to income inequality and organized labor as a broad social movement. Rachel Babale from the National Labor Relations Board describes the experiences that motivated her to become involved in worker justice issues. They all answer questions from the class. Poor quality recording. Held at the AFL-CIO Building in Washington D.C.
