New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Professor Philip Dray about the The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 and the unique circumstances in American history which made it possible, at the time. Author of There is Power in a Union: The Epic Story of Labor in America, Professor Dray reminds us of the dreary state of American life leading up to the strikes and the complete lack of a social safety net for the urban poor. Afterward, Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early stop by to reflect.
