Labor Movement Surge: Workers Unite Against Inequality

<p>On today's episode Prof. Richard Wolff joins the show to discuss &nbsp;major developments in the labor movement as workers grow increasingly &nbsp;assertive of their rights. Members of the International Alliance of &nbsp;Theatrical Stage Employees voted almost unanimously &nbsp;to authorize a strike that would shut down Hollywood, Kellogg’s factory &nbsp;workers are on strike, and workers at Nabisco recently wrapped up a &nbsp;successful strike action. Will this trend continue?</p> <p>Professor Richard Wolff is an author &amp; co-founder of the organization Democracy at Work.
