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!


YDKH's theme music is by the musician Smith the Mister called
"Beach Buggy."
