Initiated by Workers Dignity, an organization formed to fight for workers’ rights, in particular against wage theft among immigrant and low-wage workers, the group has successfully raised the money for a studio and equipment, received a low power license from the FCC and trained community members to produce, engineer and host a variety of music and public affairs From 4:15-4:30pm, The Labor Forum team will talk with Alan about their goal to move “from low power to people power.”
Last weekend, several hundred activists gathered in Richmond, Va. for the UNAC conference. Our two guests from 4:30-4:55pm.
