Brooklyn, USA Season 7 has launched!
In this season of BRIC TV podcast Brooklyn, USA, we’re taking an in-depth look at work and the history and future of labor organizing in Brooklyn.
In "Unions Are Cool Again," the season's first episode, we spoke with Dr. Joshua Freeman, CUNY professor and author of Working-Class New York: Life and Labor Since World War II; and Celeste Headlee, NPR journalist and author of Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving.
Every Wednesday until Dec. 14, a new episode will launch on BRIC’s website, Spotify, iTunes, and other major platforms.
This hardcover Rodrigo Valenzuela: New Works for a Post Worker’s World exhibition catalog is signed by the artist and features stunning photography of Valenzuela's exhibition at BRIC House, images from Valenzuela's Afterwork and Weapons series, and an essay by BRIC Chief Curator Elizabeth Ferrer.
