Jacobin Show: How Working Women Beat the Boss w/ Karen Nussbaum

Every Wednesday at 6 PM ET, Jen Pan, Ariella Thornhill, and Paul Prescod host a new episode of The Jacobin Show, offering socialist perspectives on class and capitalism in the twenty-first century, the failures of liberalism, and the prospects of rebuilding a left labor movement in the US. This is an audio version of the broadcast from March 3, 2021.

Karen Nussbaum, the founding director of Working America and a founder of the organization 9to5: National Association of Working Women, joins the show to discuss organizing women clerical workers in the 1970s, how her group inspired the hit Dolly Parton movie 9 to 5, and which sectors are prime for unionization today.
