“The Union’s Inspiration”

The Pittsburgh Labor Choir’s Tom Hoffman and Kira Yeversky lead a master class in the history of labor songs in their inspirational session at this year’s Reuther-Pollack Labor History Symposium, recorded with a live – and enthusiastically singing – audience.

On this week’s Labor History in Two:  The year was 1945; that was the day that Paul Robeson received the Spingarn Medal from the NAACP.
