WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE UNDER ATTACK: WORKERS OF THE WORLD FIGHT BACK, FIGHT BACK: A LABOR DAY SPECIAL Another Labor Day, another parade, more political campaigning, & sales galore. But what about the condition of the workers— those organized into unions as well as those (the majority) left to their own devices to confront the bosses' attacks? What of those who can't find work or are displaced? That's our focus on this Labor Day, the working class in N.Y.C, the nation, and the world. We need to put the movement back in the labor movement, and build bridges to all people's movements for social change. So to hell with Bush and his class; we'll focus on health care, keeping pensions & Social Security, jobs with good pay and benefits, and we haven't forgotten a redistribution of the wealth from the "haves and have mores." We'll bring you five hours of workers news and views and a special report on the victims of Katrina's wrath and governments' neglect. So join worker legends such as Dolores Huerta, Rev. James Lawson, and Utah Philips and meet with immigrant rights activists across the country. Tune into and be turned on by the sparks raised by youth organizing and find out about Hip Hops efforts to build cultural worker unions. And, on the cultural workers front we'll be treated to poet Naomi Shihab Nai, playwriter Gary Anderson, singer/songwriter John O'Connor's works and we'll take you to China, Africa and Latin America so that Workers Of The World Really Unite! ********************************************************************************** Building Bridges and most WBAI Programs are now being archived for 90 Days.
