On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about how workers try to form or join a union. Recently employees at a Target store in New York voted against joining the country's largest retail union. What does it take to win rights for workers? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. How are corporations preventing workers from forming unions? Have you tried to organize in your workplace? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
Guests:
Debbie Fontaine, an employee at the Rite Aid Distribution Center in Lancaster
Lila Shairo, a labor reporter with Huffington Post. She has been writing extensively on the Target employees' efforts to form a union.
David Bacon is a writer and photojournalist based in the Bay Area.
Margaret Van Ness, an overnight stocker at a Wal-Mart store in Lancaster
