Unite and Win: A Guide to Workplace Organizing

Introducing Unite and Win: A Guide to Workplace Organizing, a new 13-part podcast series by the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC), produced in partnership with Haymarket Books.

This podcast is split up into two parts: an audiobook version of EWOC’s Unite & Win handbook and discussions with labor organizers across industries moderated by labor journalist and author Kim Kelly. These episodes use real-world examples to illustrate the themes we raise in the handbook, including just how much a union can help us accomplish when we come together and fight.

Starting on January 13th, we’ll be dropping audiobook episodes on Tuesdays and discussion episodes on Wednesdays. Tune in wherever you get your podcasts!
