Moyers & Company: Is Labor a Lost Cause?

Bill Moyers begins this episode of Moyers & Company by explaining how the 2012 Supreme Court decision to not reconsider Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission exposes the hoax perpetrated by Citizens United that the group was fighting to support free speech. Moyers also discusses a disturbing Supreme Court ruling that restricts labor unions from directing collected dues toward political causes—although there is no such limit on corporations. With a sharp decline in union membership, a legion of new enemies, and legal and legislative setbacks, can unions rebound and once again act strongly in the interest of ordinary workers? Moyers talks to two people who can best answer the question: Stephen Lerner, the architect of the Justice for Janitors movement; and Bill Fletcher Jr., who served as assistant to the president of the AFL-CIO. Also featured: poet Philip Appleman, whose creativity spans a long life filled with verse, fiction, philosophy, religion…and Darwinism. Broadcast date: July 6, 2012. (57 minutes)
