Today in 1902
Two hundred sixteen miners die from an explosion and its aftermath at the Fraterville Mine in Anderson County, Tenn. All but three of Fraterville’s adult males were killed. The mine had a reputation for fair contracts and pay—miners were represented by the United Mine Workers—and was considered safe; methane may have leaked in from a nearby mine.

Teamsters Denounce Sham Settlement In Amazon Joint Employer Case
Updated On: May 18, 2026
May 18, 2026 | NLRB RULINGS | The following is a statement from Teamsters Amazon Division Director Randy Korgan regarding a decision by an Administrative Law Judge at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to force a settlement on Amazon workers in Amazon vs. NLRB et. al. "Today’s decision to force a corrupt settlement between Amazon and the NLRB shows that the only place workers will find justice is on the picket line. This last-minute intervention to stop a trial that Amazon was losing is a travesty of justice. “Amazon fears that its Delivery Service Partner (DSP) model will be exposed for what it is: a scam to avoid accountability as the joint employer of its drivers. This is why Amazon spent $25 million on union-busting in 2025 alone. This is also why Amazon is trying to dismantle the NLRB while simultaneously hiding behind it. Teamsters Union
