Two significant labor actions have taken place in the South this year – both were in Alabama. The union organizing campaign at the Amazon plant in Bessemer and the mineworkers strike in Brookwood.
The South is a critical battleground for labor and the fight for social justice.
Southern Workers Assembly Coordinating Committee member Ajamu Dillahunt spoke with Kerry Taylor, history professor and Labor/community activist, and Lacey Carey, member of ILA 1410, Mobile Alabama, about the significance of the Brookwood mineworkers strike.
