On the Raddio! —Again!

 

The Union Edge: Labor's Talk Radio

My second appearance on Charles Showalter’s Pittsburgh-based labor show.

“Musician and Talk Show Host Gary Kanter talks about the farmworker organization Familias Unidos por La Justicia fighting for a living hourly wage at Sakuma Berries Corporation in Northwest Washington.”   (March 30, 2016)

Talked about FUJ and the Sakuma-Driscoll boycotts…though we never did get to “Ballad of Sakuma Farms.”  We did have a nice discussion of and introduced his audience to “We Do The Work.”  A nice plug.

A follow-up visit to talk about and play “Ballad of Sakuma Farms” and the story behind the recording project is scheduled for April 13, 10 am (PDT)

The Joe Show for 3-9-16
I did a live version of “Ballad of Sakuma Farms” on Joe’s show a few months earlier, so it was certainly appropriate to play the just-released studio recording.
Joe continues to be a great friend and voice for progressives and progressive causes in our little corner of the country.
