Warm-Up Those Ear Buds: Ted Talk, How Labor Unions Shape Society
We Need Unions is the conclusion of How Labor Unions Shape Society. This TED talk from Margaret Levi talkes a 17 minute deep dive into how unions helped create the society we live in today and how more unions and union members will build a better world!
Social security. Health insurance. What do these things have in common? They’re all thanks to the advocacy of labor unions. Political economist Margaret Levi explains how these organizations forge equality and protect worker rights, calling for a 21st-century revival of the labor movement in order to build a more equitable future.
