Cynicism and Solidarity in Labor Movements

Amazon Teamster Strike Fund: https://www.amazonlaborunion.org/strike-fundraising
Amazon Teamster Support Petition: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/demand-amazon-come-to-the-bargaining-table-2/

We start with some quick headlines from South Korea, The Netherlands, Canada, Mexico, and Colorado Springs. For our first main story we discuss the devastation created by this year's hurricanes and how workers are banding together to help folks survive. Next we head to Australia where workers at Woolworths recently won a strike against control of their lives by algorithms. The Canadian government stepped in once again this week to crush workers, this time forcing a halt to the Canada Post strike. We've got another update on the efforts by workers to fight against complicity in genocide, and the repression hurled at them by university administrations. Finally, in a major announcement, the Teamsters are done waiting around at Amazon and are ready to strike if the company doesn't come to the table.
