Today in 1929
What came to be known as Black Tuesday, the historic stock market crash, hit the New York Stock Exchange as over 16 million shares were dumped, wiping out billions in value and launching the Great Depression—an economic catastrophe that ultimately led to mass unemployment, sweeping New Deal labor reforms, and the legal codification of collective bargaining.

Apple Store Workers Get First Union Contract
Posted On: Aug 08, 2024
Aug. 7, 2024 | COLLECTIVE BARGAINING | Workers at the first unionized Apple Store in the country ratified a labor contract with the tech giant on Tuesday, after a year and a half in which bargaining appeared to stall for long stretches and union campaigns at other stores fell short. After the union announced the outcome, Apple said it did not dispute the result and was pleased to have an agreement. The contract, covering about 85 workers at a Towson, Md., store who voted to join the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers in June 2022, will provide a typical worker with a raise of roughly 10 percent over the next three years.
