Summary

The United Auto Workers union is striking General Motors in the largest work stoppage since the same union struck in 2007. Andy and Sean jump on mic with an emergency pod to discuss the context of this job action, how the left might relate to the recent upsurge in labor militancy, and what labor history tells us about how to organize and win!
