Interview with Marc Belanger - Radio Labour
Published 2 years, 6 months ago
Description
Marc Belanger was doing labour education and union organising online back in the 1980s. That's NOT a typo -- he established SoliNet (Solidarity Network) for Canada's largest union, CUPE, nearly 40 years ago. He went on to run the International Labour Organisation's training centre in Turin, Italy and now is back in Canada, where he founded and runs Radio Labour. In this interview with LabourStart's Eric Lee, Marc talks about what he calls "activist podcasting" and gives us a preview of his next challenge - helping trade unionists around the world acquire a working knowledge of English.
