Join trade unionists, educators and workers this November from the US and around the world as they debate, discuss and learn about new communication technology and the development of a labor media movement.

LaborTech has had conferences since 1990, which brings together labor video, computer, labor media activists and labor educators to advance knowledge and use of the Internet and multi-media by working people. This year, we are also including an educational /academic component with papers about labor, media and telecommunications. How is new technology being used to exploit and spy on working people and how can labor use these new technologies such as blogging and portals like youtube to help organize, build solidarity and link up locally, nationally and internationally.

The ongoing battle of labor to survive against the corporate onslaught and media blockade requires the development of an independent labor media strategy to defend working people and their struggles.
