Mother Jones’ Boys and Jack Metzgar’s Legacy

Labor History Today: UMWA Secretary-Treasurer Michael Phillippi connects Mother Jones’ legacy with today’s labor struggles at Miners Day in Mount Olive, Illinois. Then, we remember Jack Metzgar with our 2021 interview about Bridging the Divide and the value of working-class culture. Hosted by Chris Garlock.
