Hello!

For episode 18, I'm joined by Dr. Eladio Bobadilla, assistant professor of history at the University of Kentucky (@e_b_bobadilla on Twitter) where we talk about the history of the US Labor Movement. We cover a TON in this episode, including a personal favorite of mine, Eugene V. Debs, how labor fought for workers' rights throughout the country, and the organizations that carried that fight through some difficult times. We also cover what the US government has done to fight labor on every front, and how important it is to support workers through the labor movement. I hope you all enjoy the episode!
