This episode we meet author Rob McKenzie. A long time UAW Region 4 member of Local 879. We talk about his most recent book on the Coup in a Ford Assembly plant in Mexico. So many tenticales from our government and organized labor to the CIA a lot to pack into an hour. We get into a multitude of things with Rob as Mark the host and Rob are both long time followers of all things organized labor in America. The book is amazing and we can guarantee there are things you never knew printed on these pages. Rob working with multiple sources brings so much to the table, you"ll want to own a copy of El Golpe US Labor, The CIA & The Coup at Ford in Mexico. The link loaded here is to Powell's Books in Portland so you can purchase from a Union Shop represented by ILWU Local 5

In addition to the amazing pages in this fantastic book we also recommend you follow the link we have here to read an archive of a paper printed in 1974 by Fred Hirsch. This is An Analysis of Our AFL-CIO's Role In Latin America or Under The Covers With The CIA.
