First up this week we discuss a strike by 14,000 workers at stores owned by Walmart in Chile, which has shut down over 100 stores across the country. This week we also discuss a trio of stories of the horrific working conditions faced by workers at Amazon, not only in the US but in India as well. Retail giant Dollar General reached a major settlement with OSHA this week regarding its legendarily bad record on safety. A new report published by the UE reveals the horrific conditions faced by the unionists of Occupied Palestine during the ongoing genocide. Negotiations between the NEA, the largest union in the country, and their staff union hit a new low this week as the union locked out their own staff. Finally, we discuss the recent interview by French CGT leader Alex Persson with The Real News, where he calls for worker action to ensure their victory.
