138. Tangazo!: UAW issues explored.

Sep 20, 2023

Tonight’s episode of the Kdhx podcast Tangazo, looked at the UAW strike and it’s potential impact on future labor relations and workers in general. -----
 
We looked at the salary disparity,  between workers and executives and the impact of possibly having over 145 thousand auto workers on strike, could have on this country. -----


Retired journalist LS Lockhart, social justice activist Attorney Jerryl Christmas and StLouis American Senior Editorial columnist, Michael Wesley Jones, were my guest commentators, for a spirited discussion on the auto workers strike and the resurgence of Covid.-----
 
We asked questions, about what our government’s response to a new outbreak of Covid, might be and how people who refused available vaccines during the pandemic, were more likely to not take a new vaccine, to prevent catching the disease, this time around. ------


This is a very interesting and informative discussion on serious issues that will no doubt impact us all. ------
