Hopelessness Can Turn to Hope Pretty Quick with Eric Blanc
<p>In Episode 88 we’re joined by Eric Blanc, author of <em>We Are the Union: How Worker-to-Worker Organizing is Revitalizing Labor and Winning Big. </em>We talk about the importance of unions in confronting the many problems of this dystopian timeline and how the model of worker-to-worker unionism is necessary to scale up unionization and create an effective labour movement. We also discuss the recent uptick in labour organizing in North America, including high-profile union drives at Starbucks and Amazon, and what workers are doing to win these struggles. We finish off with a little discussion of Young Cardamom, AKA Zohran Mamdani, mayor-elect of New York City.</p><p><strong>Show Notes</strong></p><p>Eric’s book <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ucpress.edu/books/we-are-the-union/paper">We Are the Union</a></p><p>Eric’s Substack, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.laborpolitics.com/">laborpolitics.com</a></p><p>Eric’s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/ericblanc_/?hl=en">Instagram</a></p><p>The Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee <a target="_blank" href="https://workerorganizing.org/">(EWOC)</a></p><p>Zohran Mamdani’s Victory Points the Way Forward, <a target="_blank" href="https://jacobin.com/2025/11/mamdani-election-trump-democrats-socialism">by Eric Blanc,</a> in Jacobin</p><p>More articles by <a target="_blank" href="https://jacobin.com/author/eric-blanc">Eric Blanc in Jacobin</a></p><p>An update on the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/amazon-closure-quebec-union-9.6979662">Amazon situation in Quebec</a></p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/fuckingcancelled/">Instagram</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://fuckingcancelled.bigcartel.com/">Merch</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://fuckingcancelled.substack.com/">fuckingcancelled.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="http://clementinemorrigan.com/">clementinemorrigan.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jaylesoleil.com/">jaylesoleil.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwrFY0_UJjs">Theme song</a></p><p>Fucking Cancelled has no ads and is a supported by our listeners.

The LA Rebellion with Cecilia Guerrero
<p>The first real, proletarian resistance to the second Trump administration kicked off last week in LA as thousands of working people flooded the streets, responding to the increasingly brutal terrorism they are being subjected to by US security forces. Returning guest Cecilia Guerrero joins us to discuss the LA rebellion, the state of organized resistance to Trump in the US, the socialist position on mass migration, and why you need to learn Spanish immediately. Cecilia is an organizer in Nashville, Tennessee, where she works with A Luta Sigue, the Tennessee Drivers’ Union, Nashville People Power and the Southern Youth Solidarity Network.</p><p><strong>Show Notes</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.fuckingcancelled.com/p/the-quest-for-the-offline-left-with-b85">Cecilia on Episode 72: Organizing the South</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/10/us/david-huerta-seiu-union-leader">David Huerta</a>, President of SEIU California</p><p>Trump ends <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/12/politics/migrants-cuba-venezuela-haiti-nicaragua">‘humanitarian parole’ </a>for citizens of 4 countries</p><p>What is <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperialism,_the_Highest_Stage_of_Capitalism">imperialism</a>?</p><p>The <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican%E2%80%93American_War">Mexican-American War</a></p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/fuckingcancelled/">Instagram</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://fuckingcancelled.bigcartel.com/">Merch</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://fuckingcancelled.substack.com/">fuckingcancelled.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="http://clementinemorrigan.com/">clementinemorrigan.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jaylesoleil.com/">jaylesoleil.com</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwrFY0_UJjs">Theme song</a></p><p>Fucking Cancelled has no ads and is supported by our listeners.
