"If storytelling has a positive function it's to put us in touch with other people's lives, to help us connect and draw strength or knowledge from people we'll never meet, or help us see beyond our own experience." John Sayles, in "Thinking in Pictures, The Making of the Movie Matewan." See Sayles and Matewan this Tuesday at AFI Silver; click here now for tickets! Details below. 

"We hope you can join us for Happy Hour for an Awesome Union Whiskey & Beer Tasting event in Washington, DC," says Labor411 publisher Cherri Senders. The tasting this Thursday is sponsored by Jack Daniels, Labor 411 and the DC LaborFest. "Fun time for all," Senders promises. "Please pass it along to your members, your colleagues and your staff. RSVP and tickets here. "Plus, we’ll be giving out our new 2017 editions of Labor 411/Metro-DC guide. See you at the Phoenix Park, Dubliner adjacent!"
