Local 1196: A Steelworkers Strike (Official BFNA Documentary Film)

[@EricBiseca-y1x]

Love you guys, your courage, and what you represent ...my grandpap was a union steelworker at E.T. in Braddock. They fought hard for what they got and all they wanted was a living and a fair crack at it for their children... This is the real heart of humanity in America

Workers of the World unite, you have nothing to loose but your chains

A timely documentary. I miss the good old days, where they actually looked after their employees.

[@afhyoutube]

Really well shot and edited. Very professional. God bless these yinzers. Go Stillers.

[@Radicalorganizer]

Union organizer here. I am thankful for the fight thats been brought this far. We'll keep fighting

[@xtr3m3fLx]

Keep it up and they'll move to another Country. The Company doesn't need you as much as you think they do.

[@khoo5996]

@@xtr3m3fLx Fine. Let them move. Some of us won't settle for slave wages.

[@ttp436]

Feel bad for them I hope something positive happens for them all and their families

Blessings to the workers

Good luck brothers. Was in USWA 1331, Republic Steel, Youngstown, OH. We had many givebacks, mergers and finally bankruptcy.

Being in a Union is beneficial 100% as an employee or even when your unemployed .............

[@whatupdawg281]

As a non union maintenance technician every place I have worked has had 12 hour shifts with no over time and I had to come in for 6 hours in the middle of a work week to make up for it. The time to unionize is fucking now. People are getting dumber.

[@whatupdawg281]

So were there strike breakers and scabs working?

[@thefrase7884]

Yes

[@whatupdawg281]

@@thefrase7884 I thought that was illegal

[@cheesescrust5399]

Maes me think of the place they all worked in The Deer Hunter

did they went back to work? did they finally sign a contract or not

Ahora hagan por favor un documental de los estadounidenses que se vienen a México buscando el ahora llamado "sueño mexicano".

19:47……why would he think you can collect UC if you choose to strike?

[@khoo5996]

Jokes on you...we ended up getting UC, plus the 300 dollar Federal supplement because ATI executives are idiot cocksuckers and lost in court.😂😂

[@dakota9334]

this actually is really fitting too because while yea national unions vote like 60% democrat but in Pennsylvania/Ohio are the states over 50% of union voters vote republican

[@DylanAFSCMEFlintMI]

Its so hard these companies are vampires. There's issues major issues with unions not fighting hard enough for the members but at least from this documentary that's not my feeling and or opinion of this local. In solidarity with all American workers from a union activist, and for a couple more days District Steward and AFSCME LOCAL 1583 member.

[@khoo5996]

It's hard to fight an entity that doesn't care if it continues to exist. That's how battle with companies are now...a fight against faceless, nameless entities known as shareholders.

[@Jrud28]

1123 is garbage, gave too my concessions and didn't want to fight for us. Practically in the company's pocket. International too. Pitiful!
