Mixing Bible verses with class-struggle rhetoric, Shawn Fain’s pro-labor Christianity has baffled some in the media. But the UAW leader stands in a rich tradition brimming with scripture-quoting union workers and labor prophets like Eugene Debs and MLK.
I had no clue the UAW president was part of this tradition, but that's interesting. On one hand it's concerning in terms of the potential for once again pitting parts of the labor movement against social progress. On the other hand, maybe he's a chill non-literalist who'll consistently turn away from the attemps that are always being made at that
Shawn Fain is belittled by the mainstream punditry and he's definitely not against social progress.
He's a breath of fresh air compared to the previous UAW leadership.
Well hell yeah then
Honestly, he came in with the Reform Caucus.
This strike is basically his first major action as leader.
