On Labor Day, Monday, September 2, the Greater Boston Labor Council held their annual Labor Day Breakfast. The event featured many notable speakers, from Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey and US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey to labor leaders such as Massachusetts AFL-CIO President Chrissy Lynch. This breakfast was unlike any prior year as it coincided with UniteHere! Local 26's Hotel Workers strike. The breakfast was held outdoors due to the striking workers of the Park Plaza Hotel, and many of the efforts of the event were turned to supporting Local 26's workers.
In this special blogcast, we offer segments of the many speeches at the event, footage of the strike, and interviews with Local 26's striking workers.
