Art Is a Hammer to Shape the World
On this week’s Labor Heritage Power Hour, we bring you highlights from the 2026 Great Labor Arts Exchange at Labor Notes in Chicago, where thousands of labor activists, artists, musicians, writers, and organizers gathered to explore how culture helps build worker power. Our featured segment is Art Is a Hammer to Shape the World, a panel moderated by longtime union organizer and author Ken Grossinger (Art Works: How Organizers and Artists Are Creating a Better World Together). Panelists include textile artist Tabitha Arnold, Puerto Rican labor organizer Edwin Morales, artist and organizer Josh MacPhee, and Labor Heritage Foundation board member and DC Labor Chorus director Elise Bryant. Together they explore how art and culture strengthen movements, build community, preserve memory, and help workers imagine a better future. We also sample two of the new Labor Culture moments introduced at this year’s Great Labor Arts Exchange—brief performances woven into Labor Notes workshops and panels—including appearances by Jordan Bridges of the New Orleans Workers Center for Racial Justice and singer-songwriter Joe Jencks. Plus: Harold Phillips with Labor Arts & Culture News, Labor History in 2:00 visits Chicago’s historic stockyards, another installment of the People’s 250 project, lifting up the stories of working people who shaped America, and music from the Great Labor Arts Exchange. The Labor Heritage Power Hour is heard Thursdays at 1 p.m. Eastern on WPFW 89.3 FM in Washington, DC and on stations across the country via the Pacifica Network. The show is also available through the Labor Radio Podcast Network. For more photos, videos, reports, and interviews from the 2026 Great Labor Arts Exchange, visit laborheritage.org. Broadcast on June 18, 2026; hosted by Chris Garlock and Elise Bryant; produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Kahlia Chapman.

Solidarity, Mr. Frodo
This week on the Labor Heritage Power Hour, Chris Garlock checks in from Chicago, where the Labor Heritage Foundation is joining thousands of activists, artists, organizers and union members at the Great Labor Arts Exchange and the Labor Notes Conference. Follow the action all weekend on Labor Heritage Foundation social media. We start with Harold Phillips' Labor Arts News, featuring SAG-AFTRA's new contract, a major union victory for public library workers in Kansas City, and a preview of labor arts events around the country. Then we hear an inspiring AFL-CIO convention address from SAG-AFTRA President Sean Astin, who reflects on his journey from actor to labor leader and explains why unions remain essential to democracy and worker power. Next, we visit Seattle's remarkable labor mural with the Labor Archives of Washington, uncovering a story of preservation, solidarity, and anti-fascist labor history. From America's Workforce, historian and union activist Max Krochmal discusses organizing higher education workers across the South and the lessons today's labor movement can learn from multiracial organizing campaigns in Texas and Louisiana. We'll also visit Barre, Vermont's historic Socialist Labor Party Hall, one of the last surviving labor halls of its kind in America, and close with Labor History in Two on the downfall of Senator Joseph McCarthy and the labor movement's struggle against the Red Scare. Broadcast on June 11, 2026; hosted by Chris Garlock and Elise Bryant; produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Kahlia Chapman.

Remembering Kent Wong
This week on the Labor Heritage Power Hour, we celebrate the life and legacy of labor educator and immigrant rights champion Kent Wong. Friends, family, and fellow organizers reflect on Kent's lifelong commitment to worker justice, immigrant rights, labor education, and international solidarity.We also continue our People's 250 coverage with a story about whose histories are remembered—and whose are forgotten—as Native leaders and scholars discuss removing a harmful monument and creating a more inclusive public memory. Then we head back to the Labor Archives of Washington, where founding archivist Conor Casey explains why preserving working people's history matters, how labor records are often at risk of being lost, and why archives remain essential to understanding the struggles that shaped our world. Plus Harold Phillips has this week's labor arts news, including new union organizing in gaming, publishing, and bookselling, and upcoming labor arts events around the country.
