Dissent: The Largest Strike in the History of American Higher Ed

Dissent (11/22/22 ([link removed]) )

This week on CounterSpin: Former Vice President Mike Pence recently said with a straight face ([link removed]) that Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, was “the most dangerous person in the world." "It’s not a close call," he said, "if you ask, ‘Who’s the most likely to take this republic down?’ It would be the teachers unions, and the filth that they’re teaching our kids." More evidence, were it needed, that the current struggle for pay and dignity by teaching assistants and adjuncts and researchers at the University of California is really part of a bigger fight about whether educators, at whatever level, are actual workers—and who's looking out for their rights. We hear from labor historian and UC Santa Barbara professor Nelson Lichtenstein ([link removed]) about what's happening at the University of California.

We talk with legal expert and author Marjorie Cohn ([link removed]) about that.
