Wobbly Radio

Friday, 29 January 2016 - 5:30pm to 6:30pm

The theme for this show is the upcoming 100th anniversary of the Easter Uprising in Ireland. There are some musical tributes to one of the co-founders of the Industrial Workers of the World, or the Wobblies, Mother Jones, who was born in Ireland. She co-founded the Wobblies in Chicago in 1905. Unfortunately due to copyright issues these have been taken out of the podcast, but you can listen to them here and here. Margaret and Peter talk to Melissa from the Earth Worker Co-operative. Melissa also attended the COP21 Paris climate talks as a Climate Angel, a project that was a collaboration between the Whistleblowers, Activists & Citizens Alliance and Climarte.
