Watch the One Nation March on Free Speech TV

By James Parks

You can watch the One Nation Working Together march on Oct. 2 live on Free Speech TV (FSTV) with hosts Thom Hartmann and Laura Flanders. The television broadcast will include main stage speeches, interviews with organizers and analysts and reporting from the crowd. It will air nationally from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time on DISH Network channel 9415, DIRECTV channel 348 and numerous cable stations across the country.

One month before the elections, thousands of union members are joining with community activists, students, entertainers, civil and human rights leaders and progressive politicians to march for jobs, justice and education for all Americans. Unions are sponsoring some 1,400 buses from around the country to come to the march. To learn more and sign up to come on the buses, click here.

Thousands more union members in dozens of states will be knocking on the doors of union members Oct. 2 in a massive daylong get-out-the-vote mobilization.

AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka in an interview with FSTV said:

We want to show a progressive vision for America, one where we come together  and we work together.
