Sinopse

Intro: From  the rank and file member  to the executive director of a Union, all great labor leaders need to build a strong understanding of labor history to develop a strong labor movement.  In a celebration of her life’s work, we talk to one of the iconic leaders of the Labor Movement, Lillian Roberts, who has announced her retirement as executive director of DC-37.  Then, we talk to Professor Kate Spaulding about how collaboration between IBEW local 3 and Empire State College assures workers  get their work  done while earning their Associates’ degrees.
