philadelphia museum of art

The Philadelphia Museum of Art security guards have been caught in a labor struggle for years, dating back to the subcontracting out of what were formerly union jobs. They finally held--and won--a union election earlier this fall, but AlliedBarton, the contractor the guards work for, has so far refused to negotiate a contract. Fabricio Rodriguez, Executive Director of Jobs With Justice Philadelphia and Dynnita Bryant, shop steward with the Philadelphia Security Officers' Union, join Laura in the studio to tell the story of their struggle and how it fits into the larger picture of union organizing now.
