Good Union Jobs Under Attack In The Black Community
Steven Pitts On Public Service And Black Workers.
Black workers in public services are now the target of the growing fiscal financial crisis. Public service including transit jobs which have provided the basis for a stable working class life is being lost at a growing rate. UCB Labor Center economist Steven Pitts Ph.D will be presenting the research work about the increasing destruction of public service jobs and what this means for working people and the Black community in particular.
