The word of the day is J-O-B. From the Wagner Act of 1935 to the Amazon workers' walk-out in April, hosts Dope KNife and Linqua Franqa take a trip through the history of the labor movement in America during the twentieth century, what it has meant for Black folks, and what it could mean for Hip Hop. LF speaks with philosopher and host of the Black Athenians Irami Osei-Frimpong about the potential for labor organizing and a federal jobs guarantee and the hosts revisit tales of hustle -- both 9-to-5 and on the block -- spun by artists from Grandmaster Flash to Biz Markie.
