Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Service Employees International Union is a “big tent” kind of operation — so big, in fact, that its local chapter in Montgomery County represents everybody from custodians to school bus drivers to part-time college professors. SEIU Local 500 also has emerged as a key player in Maryland politics. Kojo explores how a local union is taking an innovative approach to organizing in our region.
Guests
- Anne McLeer Director of Research and Strategic Planning; SEIU Local 500
- Dick Foster Part-time Faculty Member; Montgomery College
