Labour organiser Chris Smalls tells Marc Lamont Hill why he believes workers worldwide should stand with Palestine.

This week on Upfront Marc Lamont Hill speaks to labour organiser and activist Chris Smalls, who cofounded Amazon’s first US labour union.
Smalls has also been a vocal critic of the United States’s complicity in the genocide in Gaza and argues that labour unions in the country have a role to play to stop Israel:
“If our dock workers did the same as our brothers and sisters overseas, we wouldn’t see a genocide,” he says.
