292. On Strikes and Solidarity (ft. Alex Press)

This Machine Kills

We are joined by Alex Press — labor reporter for Jacobin — for a broad survey of the very large, active landscape of labor union actions happening in the United States. After updates on strikes, we then discuss the deep intersections of solidarity between labor movements and support for Palestine. The struggle for a better world is not just a bunch of isolated events, disconnected in time and place. We must stand together in the many big fights against domination of all kinds. ••• Writers Against the War in Gaza: https://www.writersagainstthewarongaza.com ••• Follow Alex: https://twitter.com/alexnpress ••• Read Alex’s work: https://jacobin.com/author/alex-press Subscribe to hear more analysis and commentary in our premium episodes every week! https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills Hosted by Jathan Sadowski (www.twitter.com/jathansadowski) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.twitter.com/bigblackjacobin).
