Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly celebrates International Labor Day, which honors Chicago workers who went on strike for an eight-hour workday in 1886. In that spirit, we begin with an article on a historic autoworker union victory in Tennessee, followed by a story on an ongoing union struggle of African tech workers. Next, our latest We Stood Up column offers a firsthand strike account. We conclude with a look at movement strategy—and what’s meant by the phrase “non-reformist reform.”
