  • Résumé

  • The long-lasting effects of the historic United Auto Worker Sit-Down Strike in Flint, Michigan can hardly be overstated. The resolutions from the strike greatly improved the quality of life for generations of automotive manufacturing workers throughout the country. In this podcast, Geoff Woodcox, Curator of Sloan's Historical Collections, goes into details about why the Sit-Down Strike happened, the sacrifices made by the strikers and their families, General Motors' and the City of Flint's response, and the eventual demands that were met by GM. As mentioned in the podcast, there are surprisingly very few artifacts from this historic event. If you have any letters, artifacts or stories that have been handed down from family members or friends who were involved in this significant historical event, please email us at podcast@SloanLongway.org.
