The ninth session for 2024 of the Harry Bridges School of Labor will be on the History of the Trade Union Educational League (TUEL). TUEL was the Labor United Educational League’s predecessor organization, which formed during the 1920s.
The Harry Bridges School of Labor aims to educate the workers of America on the strength of unions and to foster a class-conscious workforce through Labor United Educational League. We aim to connect the struggles of the past with the struggles of today to empower the labor movement to transform from their present hopeless defensive fight into an aggressive attack upon Capital. We plan to empower workers with knowledge regardless of industry or type of work, bringing all workers to a class-oriented trade union movement.
