Panel Discussion: The Role of Strikes in Labor History and Today

This program is free and open to the public
REGISTRATION REQUIRED

As part of our new exhibit When Waltham Strikes, the Charles River Museum of Industry & Innovation will host a special panel discussion exploring the history and present-day role of strikes in the labor movement. Moderated by Maya Colman, the panel will feature Christy Nickerson (President, Woburn Teachers Association and MTA Board of Directors), Ryan Normandin (Newton Teachers Association), and other representatives from organized labor.

Together, they will reflect on the power of strikes as a tool of last resort, the experiences of workers on the front lines, and the continuing importance of labor rights in shaping our communities.
