Starbucks. Amazon. And many, many others in both large and small corners of the economy. My own local and state union, NY State United Teachers, celebrating 50 years and counting this past year. Approval of unions in the U.S. at a 50-year high. It all comes together in the workers of America realizing their self worth-- and working to claim their share of an ever-elusive pie. Labor Force is a podcast about labor issues and working people in America today in the midst of this convergence.
