Louisville Courier-Journal: This Labor Day, unions are on the rise again across the US. Louisville is no different

Berry Craig: My story contained the following sentence that was deleted: “In Louisville, too, approximately 35 Courier-Journal newsroom staffers, calling themselves the Courier-Journal Guild, have announced that they want to join The News Guild-Communications Workers of America Local 34070, the union which represents Indianapolis Star journalists.”

"History doesn't repeat itself, but it can often rhyme," Mark Twain supposedly said.
It's true even if he didn't say it.
Nine decades ago, our country was on the cusp of its biggest-ever upswing in union organizing. On this Labor Day, unions are on the rise again.
