Episode description

This week's headlines include stories from workers at Safeway, Fenway Park, the Louvre, Johns Hopkins, Butler Hospital, and the video game industry. For our first story, we discuss a recent report in Truthout on the massive wins made by mental health workers at Kaiser Permanente after their epic strike. Panamanian workers have continued to fight against attacks on their rights and social security, as their government turns to legal repression. Universities across the country have gone to extreme lengths to suppress Palestine protests, this week we discuss an expose of dystopian (and sloppy) surveillance at the University of Michigan. Canada Post workers are once again at a crossroads between an intransigent government and the possibility of another strike. Finally, we check in on the growing coalition in the labor movement and the broader working class to organize against ICE terrorism.
