In episode #198 of Talking Radical Radio (December 14, 2016), Scott Neigh speaks with Mark Brown about the work of the Canadian chapter of the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists (CBTU). The CBTU brings together Black workers from across the labour movement and across the country to fight against racism and all of the other forms of oppression with which it intersects, both within the labour movement and in the broader society. They talk about some of the history of organizing within the labour movement by Black workers, about the role and work of the CBTU, and about the important political challenges facing Black trade unionists today.
