The Institute of Politics of the Kennedy School of Government will sponsor a three-evening seminar series on the future of the American labor movement Wednesday through Friday of this week.
The Wednesday seminar will consider the role of labor unions in American politics. Participants will include former Senator Albert Gore (D-Tonn.), currently an Institute fellow, and representatives of the International Machinists, the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers, and of the labor press.
Thursday's seminar on worker control of production and other economic issues facing unions will be moderated by Joseph Duffey, national chairman of Americans for Democratic Action. Participants will include representatives of the Teamsters, the AFL-CIO, and the academic world.
On Friday, Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times (at left) and Finally Got the Nows, eastern premier of a documentary about Detroit's League of Black Revolutionary Workers, will be shown in the Mather dining room.
