Silicon Valley is not the only place where companies are trying to reduce the power of workers.
The history of the tech industry is full of examples of how companies have tried to push back against worker organizing.
Paris Marx is joined by Malcolm Harris to discuss the sordid history of Silicon Valley, including the long influence of eugenics at Stanford, how Silicon Valley profited from the United States’ wars throughout the 20th century, and why the libertarian narrative of tech hide a much darker reality.
