In this episode of Labor History Today, labor organizer and researcher Eric Dirnbach talks with Dave Kamper, author of <a href='https://thenewpress.org/books/whos-got-the-power/'>Who’s Got the Power: Hope for Troubled Times</a>, about the post-pandemic union upsurge. From graduate student organizing and teachers’ strikes to the UAW’s stand-up strike and bargaining for the common good, Kamper reflects on what history can teach us about moments of possibility, and why solidarity is re-emerging as a force for change.
