    2024 Wrapped (southern union edition)

    It’s been a big year for unions in the South. If you’ve been following the labor movement in the region for more than a hot sec, then you know there just aren’t many union wins. Membership across the country was at a record low in 2023 and the numbers are even lower in the South.  Yet 2024 saw a historic union victory in Tennessee that could reshape the future of labor across the region. We go on a roadtrip lookback at 2024’s union wins and losses before peaking ahead to what’s coming up in the new year.  This episode is hosted and edited by managing editor Priska Neely, with help from Stephan Bisaha.

    What’s the best way to use money to help people in need?

    The South is receiving hundreds of millions of dollars from historic lawsuits with opioid manufacturers and distributors. Some call it a once in a lifetime opportunity. This giant pot of money is meant to help heal the damage caused by the opioid crisis. But our health equity reporter Drew Hawkins reports that in Alabama, medication that can help treat addiction is out of reach for many who need it the most.  Also, guaranteed income is having a moment in the South.  Cities have been test running giving people cash and now advocates are looking to turn that into permanent policies. We talk to WWNO’s Aubri Juhasz about how those recent pilots went and the movement’s future.  Our sports and culture reporter Joseph King went to a local high school in Birmingham honoring one of their alumni who’s now a WNBA champion.  This Week’s Gulf States Gem: Red Samurai, a sushi place in a gas station parking lot in Ridgeland, Mississippi.
