10 - But the Union Makes Us Strong (w/ Lane Windham & Ryan Grim)
b'Why do American workers face some of the weakest labor protections - and consequently some of the highest inequality - in the developed world? To find out, Briahna turns to Dr. Lane Windham, a Georgetown professor and author of Knocking on Labor\\u2019s Door, and Ryan Grim, DC Bureau Chief at the Intercept and author of the new book We\\u2019ve Got People. Dr. Windham tells a story of workers, including women and people of color, fighting for access to union rights on the eve of the country\\u2019s turn toward neoliberalism. On the political side, Ryan describes the Democratic Party\\u2019s fateful pivot away from labor power and toward big money politics in the early 1980s.\\nRyan\\u2019s book We\\u2019ve Got People: https://strongarmpress.com/catalog/weve-got-people\\nLane\\u2019s book Knocking on Labor\\u2019s Door: https://www.uncpress.org/book/9781469632070/knocking-on-labors-door\\n\\u201c28 Ghosts IV\\u201d by Nine Inch Nails is licensed under a Creative Commons BY-NC-SA 3.0 License.\\n\\u201cGlueworm Evening Blues\\u201d by Lobo Loco is licensed under a Creative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0 License.'
