Hell's Kitchen Radio #540: Throw the dart, it's gonna be great
September 2, 2024 8:00pm
Since there isn't a holiday for Hell Day...yet, I figured I should pay tribute to all the great laborers out there who never get the appreciation they deserve.
I've hosted a lot of Labor Day shows over the years, and I think it's my favorite holiday to celebrate. I've been a union member for most of my working career, being a teacher, and before that in the grocery industry. At the age of 21, I was a shop steward at a grocery store I worked at. I was a member of the Union Building Committee at the school I teach at for nine years, meeting weekly with the administration, keeping them true to the contract.
I have never had a hard time speaking truth to power. If I have learned anything it's how to finesse how I articulate the message that's needed to be said; all of which in support of the workers.
I will never cross a picket line.
The music tonight is all in celebration of the workers, most of whom are paid far below their value.
I shared a lot of worker history during the show as well. I'm guessing you aren't aware of a lot of the what I spoke about.
Don't like the way you're treated at work, then join a union.
Enjoy and please share.
