The Solidarity Effect
The Solidarity Effect is a podcast that will carry on the tradition of the original radio show in which we discuss the importance of organizing the working class. We will also discuss the issues of the day and give our perspective ranging from headline news, to our favorite music and why it is the universal language that can close the divide amongst our ever-increasing divisions within society. Join us for a real conversation!

In Episode 5, we have a conversation with Directing Business Representative, Jeremy Pearson from the IAM. Living in rural America brings its own economic challenges in 2024, from higher gas prices and groceries to just everyday amenities, we discuss why its different than living in the metropolitan areas. Jeremy shares his experience of negotiating a new labor contract with a global, multi-billion dollar corporation (CNH) and the excitement of seeing union solidarity amongst younger and older union members! Hope you enjoy the conversation!
