The Old Mole Variety Hour for March 12th, 2018

Denise Morris hosts this episode of the Old Mole which includes these segments:

• Bill Resnick interviews Marty Hart-Landsberg on the U.S. economy, trade policy and how to understand Trump's imposition of tariffs and what's the left's most effective discourse on trade.

• Last week the West Virginia Teachers strike came to an end, and along the way we saw teachers invoking the militant union history of their State's mining industries. John Sayles 1987 film Matewan is about one episode in that history, and Movie Moles Jan Haaken and Joe Clement review it.

• Jan Haaken talks with Judy Norsigian, co-founder of "Our Bodies Ourselves" and a previous executive director of the organization. They look back on how this foundational text of second wave feminism shaped the abortion rights struggle and discuss their current projects around the globe.
