Video Seasons Greetings from EGN - A Proletariat Seasons Greeting!
One of the under-appreciated stories for 2024 was the resurgence of the labor movement.
Even though Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Donald Trump dominated the news this year, several other notable developments occurred.
One of the under-appreciated stories for 2024 was the resurgence of the labor movement. Although these developments are nothing like the movement's peak in the 1950s, it has shown life after years of being comatose.
With the new Trump administration coming in, the question for workers - especially those who supported the president-elect - Trump, not Musk, is, will the wings on this resurgence be clipped?
With an administration packed with millionaires and billionaires, Trump, Musk, and his minions will do everything in their power to intimidate and suppress workers' voices. The National Labor Relations Board will become toothless, and big money interests will rule.
It is in this spirit we offer our 2024 Proletariat Season's Greetings!
Read about the Eaton strike. It was striking Eaton workers in Ontario who, 40 years ago, recorded their version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
