Workers Organizing & a May Day Snippet

Wednesday, 8 May 2019 - 8:30am to 9:00am

Around Australia and the world large gatherings of workers have celebrated May Day the day of workers solidarity. So today we thought we would give you a great story of workers organising together to get better conditions and wages in an unlikely setting where casualisation and general disenchantment with their Union had given the workers a sense of hopelessness. We follow this with a speech given at the Melbourne May Day celebrations held on May 5th by a speaker from Friends of the Earth as it seems more and more obvious environmental destruction means a no jobs future. We also get the chance to hear from a great visiting hip hop group Rebel Diaz who wowed the crowd in Melbourne with their version of the worker’s classic Which side are you on
