The following comes from the latest issue of the Pacific Northwest Labor History Association (PNLHA). I highly recommend joing and supporting the PNLHA and using their magnificent wall calendar for educationg yourself and others about labor history in the Pacific Northwest. Bill Fletcher, Jr. is one of our great union organizers and thinkers. His books and articles are especially important to building our labor movement.
On Martin Luther King Day, January 15, Michael Honey and Bill Fletcher discussed the state of labor and civil rights on the Tavis Smiley talk show on Los Angeles radio KBLA 1580.
Here are parts 1 & 2 of their conversation.
