UAW auto workers just won a historic contract as a result of their six-week strike at the Big Three automakers! This is a breakthrough victory. So, what did UAW workers win, and how does it compare to past contracts?
In this segment from our Bidenomics episode, Kshama & Bia talk about the lessons of the UAW strike and Sean Fain’s “Stand Up” strike strategy, what’s next for the UAW with the battle over electric vehicles, and how the broader labor movement can build on this crucial momentum.
From the Great Resignation to growing numbers of strikes and labor actions, workers see the record profits that major corporations are raking in, and understand that we don’t have to accept the crumbs on offer—we can turn over the bosses’ table instead.
On Strike is a production of Workers Strike Back, hosted by socialist Councilmember Kshama Sawant and Bia Lacombe—news and analysis to beat the bosses.
