If you've ever thought, “I know what to do, but I'm just not doing it,” this episode is going to light you up. Sarah came to me at age 55, deep in the chaos of menopause, emotional eating, and diet burnout. She wasn't in a program. She wasn't “launch ready.” She just sent me an email and said: “How can I work with you?” We had a Tea Chat. And that one conversation? It changed everything. Inside this episode, Sarah shares how she: Lost 11 pounds and kept it off (even after breaking her arm!) Rebuilt trust with herself after decades of compulsive food noise Quieted the guilt, shame, and mental obsession with eating Shifted her identity from chaos to calm using my mindset-first method Found new energy to move her body, meditate, and reclaim joy This isn't a story about a meal plan or a perfect morning routine. It's about real reinvention. About trusting the process before you see the result. And about what's possible when you stop waiting for a program to open—and start listening to your gut.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Hamilton Nolan, labor writer at In These Times and author of the How Things Work newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent book The Hammer: Power, Inequality, and the Struggle for the Soul of Labor. First, Emma runs through updates on Harris' recent sit-down on Fox, Lina Khan's role at the FTC under Biden, polling, Israel's ongoing offensives and genocide in Gaza, US aid to Israel, Biden's EPA, Georgia's election shenanigans, Jimmy Carter's age 100 ballot, DeSantis' war on Florida's abortion ballot measure, and a landmark settlement over the LA Catholic Church's systemic sexual abuse, before diving a little deeper into assessments of Harris' antagonistic interview on Fox. Hamilton Nolan then joins, diving right into the tight-knit and interdependent relationship between social movements and the institutions that cement the progress these movements seek, unpacking the central role labor unions have played as a ground zero for channeling the energy of social unrest into concrete political progress. After expanding on the disintegration of the state of labor in the US over the last 70 years, with even Biden – perhaps the most pro-union president over that time – overseeing a one-point drop in union rates, and the factors that drove that drop (namely staunch anti-union, anti-organizing, and pro-corporation legislation), Nolan steps back to explore how the environment that this dearth of union power has created makes it exceedingly difficult to push back against it, creating a completely asymmetrical battle between workers and corporations, and why the recent renaissance of labor consciousness – bolstered by folks like Sarah Nelson, Shawn Fian, and Felix Allen – must be capitalized on not just through legislation, by but widening and organizing the millions of Americans that still exist outside of these institutions, something essential to maintaining the progress that these unions can cement. Hamilton and Emma also touch on the major role labor is playing in pushing back against the anti-democratic (and anti-labor) urges of US imperialism, wrapping up the interview by exploring the changing image of the American worker (and the American union member), and why that must be embraced. Emma also touches on Trump's egotistic and anti-social musings about the state of immigration under Biden-Harris. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton as they talk with El Connipción from San Antonio about Ethan Klein and the conflation of Zionism and Judaism, watch Ezra Klein respond truly horrendously to Ta-Nehisi Coates challenging his inherent biases, and discuss the hypocrisy of White Supremacist rhetoric with Todd from Raleigh. Elon and Tucker bond over being complete and utter charlatans, while Krystal Ball does her best to unpack exactly Saager Enjeti is an idiot, plus, your calls and IMs!

In a striking turn of events, migrant protesters recently stormed a Seattle City Council meeting, clamoring for housing assistance for refugees, a demand that highlights a deeper controversy within the city's approach to immigration and public funding. Despite Seattle's significant financial contributions towards immigrant aid, the protesters, not actually residents of Seattle but from surrounding suburban communities, disrupted the proceedings in a bold move to press their demands. The episode not only showcases the complexities surrounding immigration policies but also marks a notable shift in the city's political atmosphere. Sarah Nelson, the new moderate president of the City Council, took a firm stance against the protest, diverging sharply from her predecessors' more welcoming approach to such demonstrations. This incident reflects the growing tension between the need for compassionate policy-making and the realities of municipal governance, stirring debates over resource allocation, law enforcement, and the broader implications of sanctuary city policies. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darien-dunstan3/message

On today's podcast: 1) Israel and Hamas trade accusations over Gaza hospitals and President Joe Biden called on Israel to take “less intrusive action” at the al Shifa hospital — the latest sign the US wants fewer civilian casualties. Israel says Hamas uses hospitals as bases for its operations. 2) Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, are set to announce an agreement that would see Beijing crack down on the manufacture and export of fentanyl, according to people familiar with the matter, potentially delivering the US president a major victory. 3) House Speaker Mike Johnson is counting on Democrats to overcome misgivings and approve his proposal to avert a US government shutdown. 4) Denver Broncos beat the Buffalo Bills on Monday night football Full transcript: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. Let's get you caught up on what's happening in the Middle East. The focus is turning to hospitals in Gaza, where Israel accuses Hamas of housing command centers and weapons. President Biden says the Alshifa Hospital in Gaza City must be protected. I have not been reluctant and especially my concerns going on and is my hope and expectation that there will be less intrusive action role through hospital. President Biden's concern about civilian casualties is being answered by Israel's Economy Minister Near Barkat, do you understand that we have to wipe isis Comeaus off the map and we will do it with minimal collateral damage. This is our values. We don't need to be told that we know that ourselves Israelly Economy Minister Near Barcott spoke on Bloomberg Business Week. You can hear more of his comments on the BusinessWeek podcast. Download it wherever you get your podcasts. Well, Nathan. As the war goes on, tens of thousands of Israel supporters are gathering in Washington, d C. To show their solidarity. On Bloomberg's Amy Moore, supports from the nation's capital. Organizers are expecting up to one hundred thousand people to attend today's event on the National Mall Capitol Hill. Security will be boosted, access to the capital will be restricted. Roads are being closed. DC police have requested assistance from the National Guard and the Department and If Homeland Security has designated the march a Level one security event that's the highest rating of risk assessment. The FBI says there's no specific threat, but there is fear of loan actors attacking pro Israel demonstrators coming to DC. The event begins at one this afternoon on the National Mall in Washington. I maye more is Bloomberg Radio, Oka, Amie, thank you staying in Washington. This could be a critical twenty four hours in Congress's attempt to keep the government funded. Bloomberg Zed. Baxter has the story. House Speaker Mike Johnson says he'll bring the bill to the House floor in spite of negative reaction from the right wing of his party, who wanted spending cuts included. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has opened the door to a settlement for now. I am pleased that Speaker Johnson seems to be moving in our direction by advancing a cr that does not include the highly partisan cuts the Democrats have warned against. And President Biden also has often saying he'll wait to see The deadline is Friday midnight, add Baxter, Bloomberg Radio. All right, and thank you well. We turned to the economy now, and we get the first of two big readings on inflation this morning. With the consumer price index for October. Economists say inflation probably ease to an annual rate of three point three percent, and we get a preview from Bloomberg's crety GUPDA. There are some varied estimates here, but I think the takeaway is simply that some of the disinflation, the progress essentially that has been happening in the US economy when it comes to inflation, is going to slow down. So it's not that it's going to increase, but it's also not going to be making as much downward progress as we expect, at least has to take out of Bloomberg Economics, and I think that's the concern here for a lot of the people who are pricing in a more dubvish Federal Reserve, which is simply that this is going to be the key data point that suggests the Federal Reserve is not done hiking at all. You heard Chairman Powell last week hint at that and kind of say, well, we're going to be as hawkish as we need to be. This is the data point that might back that up. And Bloomberg's CRETTY group disays today's inflation data is not likely to shift traders views on the fits December meeting, days after the US was threatened with the loss of its last top credit rating from Moody's the Treasury Secretary is firing back. Janet Yellen spoke in San Francisco yesterday. This is a decision that I disagree with. The American economy is fundamentally strong, and Treasury securities remain the world's pre eminent safe and liquid ASCID Secretary Yellen's in San Francisco for meetings with finance ministers from across the Pacific, Rim Nathan. The big meeting from the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit comes tomorrow, when President Biden speaks with this Chinese counterpart, seson Ping. Bloomberg News has learned the two leaders will announce an agreement that could see Beijing crackdown on the manufacturer and export of fentanyl. We spoke about the opioid crisis with San Francisco Mayor London. Breed resources that are being sent out of China that come into either the US or Mexico are cut off to the fullest extent possible. That we work together in order to ensure that this deadly poison that is killing people in San Francisco in significant numbers and all over the country, that we're able to combat this to stop it. San Francisco Mayor London Breed says fentanyl has devastated her city like no other drug in her lifetime. Let's turn to some corporate news now, Karen, we have a takeover in the commodities industry. Switzerland's Glencore has agreed to buy a majority stake in Canada's tech resources coal business for more than six point nine billion dollars. The d ns a month's long saga and sets the stage for glen Core to spin off its own coal unit. Well, Nathan, a big week for retail earnings kicks off with Home Depot. We're reporting this morning, and we get a preview with the Bloomberg's Tom Busby. Home Depot forecast report a fourth straight quarterly decline at same store sales as the one to two punch of surging mortgage rates and record high home prices caused a slump in US home sales, putting it in to the home improvement boom we saw during the pandemic. Bloomberg consensus calls for comp sales to fall three point three one percent, of the decline in the US three point six seven percent. Still, net sales expected to be thirty seven point seven billion dollars, So just at earnings per share of three dollars seventy six cents. Tom busby Bloomberg Radio, All right, Tom, thanks back to commodities. The International Energy Agency says global oil markets won't be as tight as expected this quarter. IEA says sea supply tipping back into a surplus in the first half of twenty twenty four. Sorry, Nathan. Thanks. It's time now for a look at some of the o their stories making news around the world, and for that we're joined again by Bloombery sa Amy Morris Samy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. There is growing concern about a possible government shutdown later this week, but that could also spell chaos for millions of Americans planning to travel during the holiday season. Without a deal in Congress by this Friday night, air traffic controllers and TSA workers could be forced to work without pay. And this is expected to be a record travel season. David Cymour, as chief operating officer with American Airlines, We're going to carry more customer than we ever have before, about a half a million more than last year. And House Speaker Mike Johnson has submitted a stopgap measure, but that doesn't include any money for Israel. Or Ukraine, and it doesn't have spending cuts that a lot of Republicans want. The US Supreme Court has adopted a new code of conduct, the first in the Court's history. Loyola Law School professor and former federal prosecutor Laurie Levinson says the adoption of the code itself is significant. There has been a great deal a criticism of the Supreme Court. Much of it has been focused on Justice Thomas and Justice Alito because they received gifts, they haven't made full disclosure of travel and other types of benefits, and so now we have a clear standard. But critics call the code itself toothless because it doesn't include a mechanism for enforcement. A former attorney for Donald Trump has testified against the former president and the Georgia election interference case. Jenna Ellis recounted a conversation with Dan Scavino, who served as Trump's deputy chief of staff. Video recording of that testimony was obtained by The Washington Post. He said, well, the Boss, meaning President Trump, and everyone understood the Boss, That's what we all called him. He said, the Boss is not going to leave under any circumstances. We are just going to stay in power. Trump's lead counsel in the Fulton County case says Ellis's testimony is absolutely meaningless. Ellis is one of four co defendants to plead guilty in that case out of eighteen people, and died it Alongside Donald Trump, the president of the United Auto Workers Union is headlining a hearing on Capitol Hill to talk about the resurgence of unions. UAW president Sean Faine, along with Teamster's president Sean O'Brien and Flight Attendance Union president Sarah Nelson, will provide testimony before the Senate Labor Committee on the role of unions in the lives of working families.

Lutz had missed a forty one yarder, but the Bills got called for twelve men on the field and he got a second chance to win the game for Denver, who has suddenly won three games in a row after starting the season one and five.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. Israel's war with Humas now appears to be centering on hospitals in Gaza, where the Palestinian militant group is accused of housing command centers and weapons. President Biden is saying the main hospital in Gaza City, Alshifa, must be protected as Israel intensifies its ground campaign. For the latest, we're joined now by Bloomberg's Oliver crook Oli. Good morning, get us up to speed on the situation in a northern Gaza, particularly around these hospitals that do now appear to be the center of attention. Yeah, so Nathan completely in the center of attention, and the ground offensive is still just raise it raging on in the northern part of Gaza, really cementing their positions around Gaza City and entering Gaza City. As we've seen, we've also heard that a great number of people have fled over the last ten days. The UN says that more than two hundred thousand people have moved south. That brings the total of almost two thirds of Gaza's a population of two point three million people that have fled their homes. The Defense Minister of Israel says that Hamas has lost control of Gaza at this stage. But really, as you say, the focus is on these hospitals and really beginning to test the limits of where the limit of self defense is, which has been really a question, I think for everybody since the beginning of this conflict, and everyone has a different answer to that. But we're starting to see that progress a little bit, particularly with the United States, which as we know, is a key ally for Israel in this battle. No, we did speak to Israel's economy minister Near Barkat on Bloomberg Radio and he seemed to echo a lot of the determination we're hearing from the Israeli government to destroy Hamas. It does make you wonder what those limits are. Lallie. I think it's a good question, and it's going to be in determined I suspect in part by what the United States says and how they say it. Right, So we're talking about a death toll. This is according to the Palestinian authorities, of more than eleven thousand people in Gaza, right, and two thirds allegedly are going our women and children. This is an absolutely huge figure of people and many of the allies of Israel. You know, you heard it from President mac Hole on Friday, who himself called for a ceasefire. And now You're starting to hear Joe Biden talk about restraint, Blincoln himself saying that too many Palestinians have been killed, Sullivan saying no firefights and hospitals, And we know that it is that sort of the US's behes that we got some of these humanitarian pauses. So really the question is where does it reach its limit? Again, So a lot of this stuff is going to be behind the closed doors, the discussions with Biden and Netanya who not taken out into the public, but you're starting to notice it in a lot of the public statements we're hearing from US officials. And as this fighting goes on and it compares to intensify, the question goes on as to how much longer this war can continue, how much more intense we could see that fighting take place, particularly around these population centers that do have very sensitive operations in Gaza City completely. And then there's the after question as well. But let's deal with the for how long question, which is you know, again, what Netanya who has said, and he said this as recently as a day or two ago, was that it will take not many years, right, So he's not ruling out the year's quantity of time. In this he says it'll take less time than the US took in defeating ISIS and al Qaeda, which again does not really narrow a very sort of slow and small window of period of time. But he's, you know, from the very beginning, giving himself a lot of flexibility in terms of how long this can go. And now the real question this we see another split potentially between the US and Israel, is what happens afterwards netnya who's suggesting that they will have indefinite control over Gaza. The security operations said, they say they don't want to rule it, but they also say they don't want to relinquish security control over Gaza. So again, these are all the sorts of points that are going to see develop And of course the big question is what is the future of Netanya? Who and whose decision will it be once there is peace about what happens with the relationship between Gaza and Palestine and Israel. And before we get even to all those questions about the future of Gaza and the future of the Israeli government, there's still this ongoing discussion about freeing hostages in Guza. What's the update there completely So the latest that we've heard from this is that Biden spoke to the Katari emir As we know, Qatar has played an absolutely fundamental role in the sort of got between Israel and of and the United States and Hamas. We hear again and again that there is potential progress on a deal, but every time we hear that, it's sort of backslides. So again, there has been more and more talked about it over the last few days, but I think you really cannot really rely on anything until it's fully secured. What we do know is that Israel has entirely ruled out a ceasefire until all the hostages have been freed, and in our last thirty seconds, the discussion we've had with Israel's economy minister, it seems like there's a determination as well to keep this fight going, even if it damages Israel's budget, even if it damages the economy. Yeah, I mean, the impact on the Israeli economy has been very sort of covid like in many respects where you know, obviously there's a war effort underway, but we've subtracted let's say, three hundred and fifty thousand people from the workforce that's about eight percent of the Israeli Workfor us is when you go down the streets, you know, many of the businesses are closed, all the universities are on pause. All of this stuff is really a standstill. But again, they see this as an existential fight, so they're gonna be willing to pay the price.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette Digital News Desk, and I'm here with your update for September 26, 2023.Rain is likely on Tuesday. According to the National Weather Service projections there will be a chance of rain all day, but the highest probability in the Cedar Rapids area will come between noon and 7 p.m. When not raining it should be mostly cloudy, with a high near 71 degrees.An Iowa City nonprofit will lay off about 100 employees — many who live out of state — after losing a contract to provide backup chat and text support for the national 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.CommUnity Crisis Services and Food Bank still will answer chat and text messages to the 988 Lifeline from Iowans and serve as a backup for Iowa phone calls made to the hotline. CommUnity's other services, including the food bank and Mobile Crisis Response Program, also will not be affected, CEO Sarah Nelson said Monday.Starting in July 2022, the phone number for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline was cut to three digits — 988 — to make it easier for people to connect with help. When a person with an Iowa area code calls, they are routed to Foundation 2, in Cedar Rapids, or CommUnity.CommUnity was awarded a one-year, $6.5 million contract in 2022 to serve as a backup provider for chat and text messages to the national Lifeline. CommUnity used the money to ramp up from 88 employees to 272 part-time and full-time employees who worked remotely from 10 states, Nelson said.Vibrant Emotional Health, a New York company hired by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to administer 988, told CommUnity earlier this month their contract would not be renewed.A panel tasked with reviewing Iowa's boards and commissions has reversed its recommendations to eliminate some government boards after Iowans expressed concerns over losing federal funding and public services.The Boards and Commissions Review Committee unanimously approved its recommendations during its final meeting Monday, proposing to eliminate or consolidate 111 of Iowa's boards and commissions, leaving 145 in place.The recommendations would need to be approved by the Republican-controlled Iowa Legislature in next year's session and signed into law by GOP Gov. Kim Reynolds before they take effect. The committee was created as part of a massive state government reorganization law Reynolds signed this year, which also shrank the number of cabinet-level state agencies and eliminated dozens of unfilled state jobs.Cedar Rapids will be getting a slice of the state baseball tournament pie.The Iowa High School Athletic Association announced Monday that Veterans Memorial Stadium will host the Class 3A and 4A portions of the 2024 tourney.Carroll again will be the 1A-2A host. The tournament is scheduled for July 22-26.The contract with Cedar Rapids is for one year. This will be the first time since 1974 Cedar Rapids will host state baseball.

In a contentious 5-4 decision, the Seattle City Council rejected a new law that would have allowed for drug possession to be prosecuted as a gross misdemeanor, providing another chapter in the city's ongoing struggles with drug addiction and crime. The decision, which has triggered a wave of disappointment from critics, essentially keeps drugs decriminalized in the city despite the rapid spread of fentanyl addiction and associated deaths. "It's crazy town," one commentator described the city, noting how some Seattleites appear more interested in "reimagining" laws than enforcing them.Interestingly, one of the four dissenting votes came from council member Sarah Nelson of Fremont Brewing. Nelson publicly voiced her frustration at the council's refusal to align with the statewide drug law passed in May. "I was shocked," she told Jason Rants on 770 AM KTTH, framing the decision as a failure to address the rampant drug problem plagically plaguing Seattle. Yet, for the majority on the city council, further deliberation and reimagining seemed more pressing than immediate action - a stance critics find perplexingly disconnected from the reality of Seattle's streets.Further confounding critics, council member Andrew Lewis, originally planning to vote for the measure, backed out citing the need for further committee discussion. This decision to delay direct action is seen by many as just another layer of bureaucracy inhibiting effective responses to the city's drug and crime problems. Ultimately, with the city council choosing to keep drugs decriminalized for now, the question that remains is: will the citizens of Seattle make a different choice in the next election cycle?#SeattleCityCouncil #DrugDecriminalization #PublicPolicyFailSupport the show

Seattle City Council's Sarah Nelson, co-owner of Fremont Brewing Company, puts a spotlight on the controversial subject of "harm reduction." The policy that has come under scrutiny involves handing out drug paraphernalia like meth pipes to drug users in an effort to curb diseases spread through injecting drugs. On paper, this approach appears logical. In practice, however, questions have been raised about its effectiveness.Nelson poked holes in the practice during a public meeting. She demanded data from harm reduction experts to prove the policy's effectiveness, but was met with vague responses and anecdotal evidence. While one argument posits that providing smokers with cleaner smoking supplies will curb the need for injection, there is a gaping void where solid data should exist. Additionally, the proliferation of deadly substances such as fentanyl complicates this strategy even further.In the end, this 'harm reduction' policy presents an ironic situation where drug users are seemingly encouraged to continue their harmful habits under the guise of harm reduction. Even with the provision of post-overdose medication, it's a vicious cycle that seems to propagate rather than prevent self-destruction. Some believe that the current approach may be all harm and no reduction.#HarmReduction #PublicPolicy #SeattlePoliticsSupport the show

What do you do when God delivers a perfect storm into your life? On today's episode, I talk with author Sarah Nelson. Sarah is author of “A Perfect Storm: Devotions During a Crisis.” This is a 28-day devotional that was created out of an unexpected storm in Sarah's life – dealing with her 2-year old daughter suffering a stroke on a family ski vacation. Instead of relying on her own wisdom to get through this difficult season, Sarah turned to God. We talk about the power of prayer, healing and using the storms in our own lives to help others. You can find Sarah's book on Amazon. Be sure to visit https://neilgetzlow.com/ to learn more about Neil's journey and to check out his book, "Unmasked: Conquering Sexual Sin and Walking in Victory."

This weeks episode features Sarah Nelson. Sarah wrote a 28 day devotional called "A Perfect Storm", which chronicles a time when their two-year old daughter suffered a stroke while on a family vacation.

In April of 2022, a young man named Christian Smalls led a powerful unionization drive at the Amazon warehouse in Staten Island, New York. An 8,000 person work force was working under conditions that Smalls, and others, found unfair and unsafe particularly during the COVID pandemic.Amazon spent over $4M to deter Smalls' unionization efforts, which he funded with $120,000 raised on a Go Fund Me page. Yet as everyone now knows, Smalls' David beat Amazon's Goliath; the final vote was 2,654 yes votes, 2,131 no, with 68 challenges. While Amazon was left with more arrows in its quivers with which to beat unionization, the vote at JFK8 was a historic win with an indisputable emotional and psychological effect on labor activists around the country.  Was Amazon's material power enormous compared to that of Smalls and his friends? Oh yes. Was it almost ridiculous to think that Smalls - particularly with so few resources compared to Amazon's - would be able to rally enough support for his efforts? Absolutely. So what happened there? What was it about Smalls - about his commitment and his perseverance and dedication to his cause - that despite the forces arrayed against him enabled him to work a miracle? Speaking on the New York Times Daily podcast, Smalls referred to the process as “spiritual.” He said the effort was built on “love and caring for one another.” Amazon spent millions of dollars on anti-union consultants; Smalls put up a folding table on public property near the bus stop outside the warehouse, talking to Amazon workers as they got off and on the bus day after day, night after night. He talked to workers, he listened to their stories, he helped where he could, he built a community of sorts. They all sang together, he said, and even prayed together. In the end, the power of connection, community, human sharing and understanding, overcame Amazon's gargantuan material power.Many have referred to Smalls as the David to Amazon's Goliath. And there was far more to the Biblical David and Goliath than simply their difference in size. First of all, David wasn't even a warrior; he was a shepherd delivering food. He knew nothing about fighting. But his heart was touched by the pain and fear of his brothers, and it was that which inspired him to volunteer to take on the giant. He was bound to win … because the giant had no soul.Smalls, like David before him, was going to hit Goliath in the one place where it has no defense: its lack of conscience. With his slingshot David hit Goliath at the midpoint of the giant's forehead, a point referred to metaphysically as the Third Eye. If you have a conscience and the opponent doesn't, then ultimately you will win. A soulless neoliberal economic order, devoid of ethics and human compassion, will have no power once confronted by a politics of love, of radical humanitarianism. The way Smalls discussed his union drive made me think he understands that.Amazon didn't know what hit them.Most experts in the field of union organizing would have doubted Smalls' effort, and the executives at Amazon certainly did. Amazon's general counsel made the mistake of emailing a thousand people to describe Smalls as “not smart and not articulate,” a line that will go down in history as the famous last words of a dinosaur system. They became a rallying cry not only for Smalls but for thousands of people who could relate to the experience of their legitimate calls for justice going unheard, their needs being dismissed, and their very way of speaking being derided. The Amazon executive said he hoped the press would focus on Smalls as a kind of mascot for the unionization effort, as he felt it would be good for the company on the public relations front. If ever there was a “watch what you wish for” moment, that was it.Smalls didn't try to look or sound like a union leader is “supposed” to look or sound. Nor did he look to professional organizers to build his union. He knew the experts had failed in their effort to unionize the Amazon warehouse in Bessemer, Alabama; only Smalls knew the workers themselves and what they were going through on Staten Island. He's unabashedly of a new generation of labor leadership that is going to do things their way.We can't beat the old system with the tools of the old system, for the old system is loveless. If we put our lovelessness up against its lovelessness - and it has more money or power of brute force than we do - then we will lose. It is only when we claim the power of deep human connection, of the authentically human, that we can invoke nonviolent revolution. Call it solidarity, call it community, call it brotherhood or call it love - whatever you call it, it's the key to transforming the world.Interestingly enough, it was the American labor union advocate Nicholas Klein (not Gandhi, to whom the words have often been misattributed), who in 1918 said, “First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you.” The quote was become popularized as “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and then you win.”  Whichever way we say it, the point is that it's true. There will definitely be monuments to Christian Smalls one day. He brought a deep human dimension to a field that had grown dry and sclerotic, like bringing a withered flower back to life. He, more than any other individual, has made labor organizing a thing again. He did something that so needed to be done, and now thousands upon thousands more will have the courage to do it too.I admire him greatly, and I hope you enjoy our conversation... (The episode can also be found on Spotify and Apple Podcasts)Marianne Williamson:Hi everybody, Marianne Williamson here, thank you so much for being with me. This is an exciting interview for me. It's something I've been wanting to do. It has been scheduled and rescheduled. I could do it, but then he couldn't do it. He could do it, but then I couldn't do it. And finally today was the big day I got to interview labor organizer Chris Smalls. Christian Smalls is someone who has already made history in his young life. He has actually led a successful union drive at Amazon.Amazon as we know is a huge corporate behemoth, and it is one of these huge corporate entities that has done everything in its power to keep unions out of its shop. Now, you might say, as I think any reasonable person would say, with the billions of dollars that Amazon makes - the billions of dollars in profit that accrue not only to its stockholders but also to the big man himself, Jeff Bezos - why would they not want to give workers all the safety benefits? All the health benefits, all the things that will just enable those workers to have a dignified life, to make a living wage and to be able to work with some happiness and some productivity and creativity that feels natural to them on a daily basis?Well, as you probably know, that is not the way Amazon has seen it. So Christian Smalls is the man who did what they said could not be done. He successfully unionized the Staten Island, New York warehouse, JFK8 in April of this year. Nobody would've thought that he could do it. It began when he was working at Amazon and he was upset by the lack of safety measures that were being taken at the beginning of the pandemic, when COVID was particularly dangerous. The company was not taking the measures that they needed to be taking to ensure the safety of its workers.He was just blown off. Then when he tried to stage a walk out, they fired him illegally and Amazon spent over $4 million on labor busting activities. They brought in the big guns. They brought in the so-called experts. Christian Smalls, and the gentleman who was his partner in this effort, Derrick Palmer, they raised $120,000 on a GoFundMe page. They did what they said could not be done. They built community. They built solidarity. They took a folding table, folding chairs, set them up outside the bus stop where workers came and went every day. They had food, they sang, they famously smoked weed and they talked and they prayed together. And they explained to people why it was to their benefit (to form a union). Now, even as we speak, Amazon is contesting the election saying it needs to be held again, complaining that the NLRB, the National Labor Relations Board was unfair in its help that it gave to the union.They're saying all the things you would expect them to be saying right now, but Christian Smalls has already made history. Christian Smalls has already enlivened single handedly, practically, the labor movement in this country along with incredible people like Sarah Nelson, so many others as well. There are thousands of people and more who have been involved in the larger effort. Now look at what's going on at Starbucks, what's going on at Walmart.What's starting to go on at Apple, Google, this is now a fire that has been lit. Labor is coming back and it's coming back in large part because of this one young man, Christian Smalls. I hope you enjoy our interview. Marianne Williamson:Chris Smalls, thank you so much for being with me. I'm really grateful, and I have really looked forward to speaking with you.Christian Smalls:Thank you. Thank you for having me.Marianne Williamson:You are very much man of the season. You've already made a historic difference, not only in the labor movement, but in our contemporary relationship with capitalism itself. People will be talking about you decades and longer from now. My interest in you, what I've thought about so much is why you? And so I'd like to discuss that with you today if you don't mind going over some of those details with me. You had been working at Amazon and you had a problem with the fact that you felt that they were not taking care of the health and safety of its workers in a way that was appropriate during COVID. Is that correct?Christian Smalls:Yes, absolutely.Marianne Williamson:Okay. So when you first went and complained about that, what kind of response did you get?Christian Smalls:It pretty much was just negative. It was nothing that was really a solution to what we were asking for. It was just nonchalant, business as usual, not really worried about our concerns. We needed PPE, we needed some guidance on to how to socially distance. It was nothing. It was just very vague. It wasn't really reaching anybody on the shop floor and I just couldn't stand with it.Marianne Williamson:So when you went and made that complaint, were you alone in the office with the HR person or were other people with you?Christian Smalls:At certain points, other people were with me, but initially, no. I went by myself and then I brought larger groups days following especially after my colleague tested positive, I started to organize workers in the break room.Marianne Williamson:So we all have to remember, this is at the height of the COVID pandemic? This is when this was a very serious situation, people were getting sick. What I'm curious about is your perseverance. What I'm curious about is the fact that they did not stop you. Now, if it had not been you, what would've happened for most people who were at Amazon at that time? They go, they complain to HR, HR just brushes off their complaints, and then what happens? Did people just figure there's nothing we can do?Christian Smalls:It would've been a lot more people deceased had I not did what I did. People would have lost their lives had I not did what I did. Amazon was forced publicly to provide the PPE and they made sure that week after I was fired, that they dropped all packages right to JFK8. And unfortunately, people still died that I've known that worked there.Marianne Williamson:So you're angry at that point, you feel the sense of injustice and you keep going. You don't let it go. You stage a walk out. At that point, Amazon starts realizing we might have a problem on our hands, but we don't really have a problem on our hands because Chris Smalls is "Not smart, not articulate." When you first do stage a walk out though, they fire you, right?Christian Smalls:Yes, two hours after the walk out on the same day they fired me.Marianne Williamson:What is it about you? What was going on inside you at that point that you said, "I'm not stopping." What was happening inside you? Who was talking to you? Was it friends? Was it family? Because not everybody would've persevered the way that you did. What was going on inside?Christian Smalls:Well, yeah. At the time, I was devastated by obviously losing my main source of income. So of course, I had to talk to my relatives, my mother.Marianne Williamson:I knew you were going to say your mother.Christian Smalls:Yeah.Marianne Williamson:I knew it. I knew it. All right. Tell me, what did your mother tell you, Chris?Christian Smalls:Well she always told me no weapon formed against me shall prosper. And she just motivated me to continue fighting for what's right. And I spoke to out of nowhere, Reverend Jesse Jackson called me, so I spoke to him. He really uplifted me, he gave me some legal counsel. And from that moment, I just continued to embrace whatever was thrown at me.Marianne Williamson:Right. So when you went down to Bessemer, Alabama, and you offered to be of service to their unionization efforts down there. That effort was being led by the people who supposedly know how to do all this. And they shoved you aside too. What did you know? You were just a worker, right? That would've also felt insulting and defeating.Christian Smalls:Yeah, it was definitely disheartening that I wasn't along with the people I went with who are actually Amazon workers that we didn't really have a connection with the union down there to really help them the first time around, which I saw we wanted to do originally. But we learned from their mistakes, we learned from the opportunities that we saw and we tried it our own way. And we don't regret the decision that we made. I felt that you're going to make decisions based on the workers in the warehouse, then who better than the workers in the warehouse.Marianne Williamson:I heard you say, actually, in talking about the community that you built. You got your folding chairs and your folding table, and you just set yourself up at the bus stop. You would bring food. Sometimes you would bring food that was more familiar to some of the immigrants who were the workers there, you would sing songs. You said you would pray together. You famously smoked weed together which Amazon is trying to use against you. Everybody else is saying, "Well, that was smart."Explain not only the community building that you did, but I want to go back a little bit to this David and Goliath issue as I'm sure you know because I'm sure your mother taught you well. King Saul took off his coat of armor and said to David, "If you're going to do this, the least I can do is give you my coat of armor." He put on Saul's coat of armor and gave it back, said, "If I'm going to do this, I have to do it my way." You pierced this incredible wall of power represented by Amazon, huge corporate power. You pierced that wall and you pierced it through the level of community building that you did. Am I correct?Christian Smalls:That's absolutely correct. Yeah, we wanted to do it our way. We really didn't even have to reject help because we didn't get any. So to know that we did it our way and to really be successful, there's no greater feeling. And to have it worker led through and through, the workers understand the power now. And that was the only way and the best way that could have been done, to have them do it themselves.Christian Smalls:And to me to be this outside, presence at the bus stop, knowing the ins and out of the company, we definitely wouldn't take it back. This was the way to do it, and we're just happy to share this experience with the world. So originally, we were approached by some unions that wanted to affiliate which means that obviously, we had to start over our campaign. So that was a no go, and then the rest were very vague type of help or if any, we didn't get it. So we didn't ask and vice versa. Yeah.Marianne Williamson:So you have already made history. You've already demonstrated what's possible. You've already started the reemergence of labor in a way that we have not seen in decades in this country whether it has to do with people at Starbucks, people at Apple all over the country now, there is this burning fire. First of all, I want to ask you about the efforts going on right now. You do feel that the NLRB, National Labor Relations Board, you do feel that they have served you well and that they have been fair and helpful, correct?Christian Smalls:Well, they've done what they can do. It's still a ways to go. Their laws are obviously outdated. They're way understaffed, they're way underfunded. So it really is a question is did the administration allow this NLRB to help us out? And the answer to that is they have some work to do. We want the PRO Act to be passed. We want some of these remedies to be quicker.It shouldn't take two years for somebody to get fired and get their job back. Companies shouldn't be able to control and dictate certain things that they are able to do now. And we're dealing with that as we pretty much progressed through our campaign. We're learning that there's still some things that need to be worked out when it comes to these labor laws in this country.Marianne Williamson:Well, right now, Amazon even as we speak is trying to get the election overthrown. What are the other things to which you're referring? Where you feel the administration could be giving you and by extension the entire labor movement right now greater support in its efforts?Christian Smalls:Well, number one, they definitely shouldn't be given $10 billion to Amazon which they are. That doesn't make any sense, and then these are taxpayer dollars. The public needs to be outraged as well. Not just the workers, it's not just up to the ALU and the workers to take on all of the responsibility for holding this company accountable. Biden should be using that executive order pin. There's something that he can do right now to help workers out immediately.Marianne Williamson:I want to make sure that nobody misses out on this. First of all, that 10 billion, right?Christian Smalls:Yep.Marianne Williamson:(Biden) had said at the beginning of his presidency that he would not be giving any government contracts to companies that were actively opposing unions, but that's an example of his doing exactly what he said he would not do. What are the other things that he could do by executive order right now to be of greater support to unions?Christian Smalls:Well, definitely signing an executive order if the PRO Act is not going to pass, there's certain things that they can take and get into order right now. Also, just allocating some more money towards the NLRB on a national level. We need to staff these offices so that they can take on the amount of cases and inquiries that are coming from workers. They can't even really keep up.Marianne Williamson:Yes. That's what I heard from union organizers at Starbucks when I asked about the NLRB. They said, "Yeah, they're trying." But they're understaffed. We have this idea of this huge government agency, but it's actually just a much smaller office than you would think, and that it should be. Okay. So we know the success that you have been. We know that regardless what they do now, regardless of even if they overthrow the election, you've already pierced the wall.You have already inspired the imagination. You have already given hope to thousands, if not millions of workers out in America to think, "Well yeah, maybe I could start a union. People who know that they can get online and see how it's done." I want to throw another compliment at you if I may. When this all happened, I was really looking as I'm sure many people were really looking closely at you because all of a sudden, you were all over the media and you did not waver. The kind of seduction techniques that the system uses to pull people over. Just please know that your demonstration of the solidity of your convictions, your unwillingness to waver, please know what a difference it has made to so many of us who are looking very carefully at what's going on.Christian Smalls:Well yeah, just thank you again for that compliment as well. Right now, the labor movement definitely is reaching different platforms that we haven't seen. It's unprecedented at these times. And I know I'm a big part of that going on different platforms, talking about labor, that's something that's necessary. And I see that the labor movement right now needs to be led by the younger generation.There's no other way around it. The older established unions are starting to see the resurgence of this type of revolution, the Starbucks workers, the Apple, Google, Amazon, you name it. Even Walmart, Dollars General, Target, they reached out to me. So it's just a beautiful thing to see really.Marianne Williamson:So what I hear you saying is that you recognize that your leadership role is not just in regard to what happens at Amazon, but that your leadership role along with people such as Sarah Nelson and others has to do with the larger picture of the reemergence of labor at this time. I know you had a friend, Derrick Palmer I believe.Christian Smalls:Yes.Marianne Williamson:Who really he joined with you, and I think that was a big deal. Having even one person who really believes in an effort, but in terms of the overall workforce at Amazon, was it a slow slog trying to convince people that this was possible? Trying to convince people it was a good idea? Did people seem too defeated to think it was possible?Christian Smalls:Yes. We definitely had to spend a large portion in the beginning of our campaign just educating people on what a union is. At first of course, there's so many questions. There was several conversations to be held, and it took some people two to three months to come on board, even some members of our core leadership with the ALU. Some of them didn't come until well after our first petition was even filed.So it took people time. It took people coming back to the bus stop, talking to me directly. There's been a lot of that throughout the course of the campaign, and just Derrick present along with the other leaders inside the building every single day advocating even though the company was union busting so hard. Just having that militancy in the building showed the workers that when we come together, there's nothing that could stop us.Marianne Williamson:What were the fears that people had about joining a union?Christian Smalls:Well, it's always about the money. Amazon always tried to make it about the union dues. They know that these workers barely make enough as it is which is sad because they work for them and they can pay them more, but they know that these workers are living check to check. So of course, to threaten somebody else, a third party which they tried to refer to us as coming in to take union dues, that's going to put fear in anybody's mind who thinks that we're coming to take their money and to make me rich, or to make me a millionaire. They even told the workers at one point that I'm going to take the union dues and go buy a Lamborghini. It was just making up just silly things every single week, and we had to combat that.Marianne Williamson:Then of course, the over $4 million that Amazon spent was on professional union busters. So these techniques are very tried and true for them. And if we will continue to just talk to people. Now, in the current effort that Amazon is making to overturn the election, are you hopeful about that that this will be okay and that they will not be able to do that?Christian Smalls:Very hopeful. We know, and I know that we followed the rules through and through. We didn't cheat, we beat them fair and square. Even if you can say fair and square, we're talking about workers beating a trillion dollar company and they're crying wolf. That's just what it is. They're mad that they lost and they're going to spend every dollar to try to overturn it, but there's nothing there. They're just dragging this out. From what I understand, I can't even tune in because we are removed from it. We just hope that the NLRB and we have a good set of lawyers that are fighting for us. We hope that the decision goes our way.Marianne Williamson:Jeff Bezos has so many billions of dollars. He's one of the richest men in the world. Amazon has profits of so many billions and all we're talking about is creating a situation where the workers for a company can have a living wage, dignity, reasonable benefits so that they can live a quality life. How does that just make you feel on a personal level that this corporate giant who has so many billions of dollars is working so hard to block you? Where are you in your heart about that?Christian Smalls:Yeah, it really just makes no sense how much greed somebody can have in a lifetime. Just thinking about the fact that one million of these dollars, one million can pay everybody $30 an hour. So it's just disheartening to hear it when you put in that perspective, but it also just continues to motivate us what we're fighting for and we're not going to give up no matter what they do, no matter how much union busting money they spend. The workers are past that point of return. There's no going back to what we saw and what we were getting pre-COVID. This is the turning point, and I think workers know their value now.Marianne Williamson:In this latest more modern era, the suppression of the union and the demonization of unions has been so strong for the last few decades. You have clearly made a dent in that in terms of the consciousness of the workers. What about just America in general? Do you think America's waking up just as a country to the recognition that the labor movement is an important antidote to overreach by capitalism?Christian Smalls:I really believe that the tides are definitely turning. Once again, labor is booming and up from I think it's believe 57% of unionizing elections this past year. So yeah, there's definitely something brewing here in the country nationwide. I've been traveling the country, I'm called the Hot Labor Summer Tour. I've been traveling ever since we won. I'm continuing to do so to spread awareness, spread our message and to really inspire people that want to unionize and no matter what industry you're in.So yeah, I think the conversation is starting to move. We just have to continue once again, keep our foot on the gas. We can't let up. We can't rely on the politicians. We can't rely on the corporations. Damn sure can't rely on our bosses to give us what we want. We have to go get it.Marianne Williamson:Is there anything else that you want people to know? That you want people to remember?Christian Smalls:I just want people to know and take note of what they witness. We're just ordinary people that came together. As I speak right now, I am an unemployed worker no matter if you're employed or not, you're still a worker and we're all a part of the same struggle. When we come together, we can defeat companies like Amazon. We can defeat companies like Walmart. It's just up to us to really come together and build off a commonality. I already said it to Lindsey Graham, it's not a left or right thing. It's the worker thing, and we've got to come together as people and really take on and fight back for what we rightfully deserve.Marianne Williamson:When you were speaking at a congressional hearing to Lindsey Graham, the one you just mentioned that of course was televised. I felt that something in him heard you and knew that you were speaking truth. Did you feel that way?Christian Smalls:At the moment, no, of course not, but I obviously watched the tapes and seen that that moment took off on the internet, I said, "Okay, maybe he did listen to me. Maybe not, but just to have workers speaking in the court hearing, that felt good." Workers need to hear that, people need to hear that message, and I'm glad that it resonated.Marianne Williamson:Well, you're making a very important point right there. It really doesn't matter whether or not Lindsey Graham heard you. What matters is that America heard you. And once again, the way you spoke to him, much like the way you spoke to Tucker Carlson, you do not waver from what you know to be the moral truth and integrity of your words. And it really obviously does not matter to you who buys it because you're talking to the larger audience of who's listening. God bless you. I think you're incredible, and if there's any way that I could possibly contribute to what you were doing, please call on me anytime. I'm one of your biggest fans.Christian Smalls:No, I know already, and I appreciate everything you've done for me already, and your support as well, very much needed in this fight. And yeah, just speaking about David and Goliath, the shirt that I'm wearing is actually David and Goliath. Somebody designed it.Marianne Williamson:Absolutely. He hit him in the third eye. He hit him in conscience, that's the one place where, and this is a very important spiritual truth about the story of David and Goliath. The one place where the giant was undefended was in the seat of the soul. And that is what you do, you speak right into conscience. You speak right into the hearts knowing that's how you made the movement happen.Marianne Williamson:I'm not surprised to hear that your mother had something to do with that. I have heard the little things that you've said about how the movement itself was spiritual, about how you prayed that morning. A lot of people have heard and have listened and you have definitely demonstrated the power of David to speak to the seat of the soul, and I think that you've only just begun. You've already made history and I hope you make a lot more of it. God bless you, sir.Christian Smalls:Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.Marianne Williamson:Thank you. Thank you so much. Okay, that was my interview with Christian Smalls. I hope that you enjoyed it as much as I did. Christian Smalls has made history and now, the rest of us have to find it in our hearts to do that which they say cannot be done. If you are working in a company or in an industry where you feel that there needs to be a union and there's not, I hope that you will go online, that you will find all the ways that you too could start a union drive among the people that you work with.This is a movement that having begun in the way it has now, this reemergence of labor - the fire has started and it's not going to stop. So if this is meant for you, I hope you'll take action. In the meantime, thank you for being with me.
