Labor history group members featured in the Labor Day video
Explore the union battles of the past, the implications for today
Greater New Haven Labor History Association Vice President Dorothy Johnson and Communications Director Anson Smith are featured in a Labor Day video produced by the Western Connecticut Area Labor Federation. Dorothy talks about experiences as a local union leader while Anson talks about the rise of anti-worker propaganda and mass media in a 1936 strike in Middletown, CT. The strategies and tactics developed there were used in the battle for the Taft-Hartley Act 11 years later, and many are still in use.
