DANNY GLOVER: Why the fight against AMAZON in Bessemer matters

Click here to listen to the extended audio interview with Danny Glover and read the full transcript: https://therealnews.com/hammer-and-ho... One of the most historic union votes of our era is underway: 5,800 workers at the Amazon fulfillment center in Bessemer, Alabama, are currently voting on whether or not to unionize with the Retail, Wholesale, and Department Store Union. If the union vote is successful, workers at the Bessemer facility will become the first unionized Amazon workforce in the United States. On Feb. 22, 2021, world-renowned actor, activist, and Real News Network board member Danny Glover came to Bessemer to show support for Amazon workers and their struggle to form a union. TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez drove 14 hours from Baltimore to Bessemer to sit down with Glover and talk about why this vote is so significant and how Amazon workers in Bessemer, the vast majority of whom are Black, are part of a long tradition of labor struggle in the South. This interview is part of our new TRNN mini-series “Battleground Bessemer,” in which we will be bringing you in-depth coverage of the historic union vote in Bessemer throughout the month of March.
