The Vast Majority: Looking for a Spark — with Alex Han
Dec 07, 2020•44 min
Episode description
Longtime labor organizer Alex Han talks with Micah about the 2008 Republic Windows and Doors factory occupation in Chicago. That occupation helped catalyze labor militancy and eventually a left political pole in the city, but it didn't lead to a broader working-class upsurge across the United States. Could things be different in 2020 if a similar spark can catch fire among workers fed up with austerity and dangerous working conditions under a pandemic?
