EDITOR’S NOTE: The resistance is spreading
Lawrence Smoot | Published on 3/1/2025
The resistance is spreading and everywhere it does, art is a key part of the struggle, whether it’s a new song supporting federal workers (see Al Bradbury’s “We Got Your Back” below) or a legendary actress using her SAG-AFTRA awards speech to raise up unions (see Jane Fonda in our Labor Quote of The Week). On Wednesday, Elise and I met with AFL-CIO president Liz Shuler to discuss how LHF can expand labor arts support for the labor movement, including more songs and chants for the rapidly-increasing number of rallies and picket lines across the country (ee song/chant contest story). We’ll be sharing these plans as they develop; if you’ve got ideas or suggestions, we want to hear them! Email us at info@laborheritage.org
