How Labor Unions Create Worker Power | How to Be a Better Human | TED
The TED Audio Collective is a collection of podcasts for the curious. Subscribe on YouTube:
We don’t know about you, but we are fans of weekends. And social security. And health insurance. And the end of child labor! And all of these workplace protections exist because of the advocacy of labor unions. In this episode, political scientist Margaret Levi shares the long history of organizing labor and explains how unions create equality and protect worker rights. She also discusses her optimism about today’s young workforce and why she believes that an equitable future requires a revival of the labor movement. Listen to more How to Be a Better Human wherever you get your podcasts.
