Labor on the Air · Memphis' Legendary WLOK
The Station That Has Always Stood With Working People
AM 1340 · FM 105 — the first Black-owned radio station in Memphis and a Tennessee Historical Landmark. CLC President Kevin Bradshaw joined the legendary Kermit Moore — President of the Memphis A. Philip Randolph Institute, President of the Memphis NAACP, and a retired USW member — on The Rainbow PUSH Hour with Dr. Kevin Brooks — a host who is spot on about labor and the community. He comes by it honestly: his mother was a union machinist right here in Memphis, and he was raised in organizing.
The Four Pillars
Black leaders whose work built the labor movement for every worker in America.
Randolph taught Rustin. Rustin taught Lawson. Lawson trained the marshals of 1968. Lucy printed the signs. This is the unbroken chain — and these are the Memphis partners carrying it forward.

1889 — 1979

AI Working For Working People
At the AFL-CIO's 30th Constitutional Convention in Minneapolis, delegates declared "AI Should Work For Us" — passing a resolution that technology must be used to empower workers, not surveil, exploit, or replace them.
This app is that resolution in action: AI built by labor, for labor — educating union members and youth, telling our stories, and growing worker power on our own terms.

They Spend Billions to Bust Unions. Imagine If We Spent That to Grow Them.
Every dollar spent fighting workers is proof of how powerful an organized worker is. The facts say unions should be growing — not getting busted up:
spent by corporations EVERY YEAR on union-busting consultants & law firms (EPI / LaborLab)
spent by Amazon alone on outside anti-union consultants in 2025
of Americans approve of labor unions — near a 60-year high (Gallup)
higher median pay for union members vs. non-union workers (BLS)
