## Resource

The USW's Next Gen program saw its humble yet historic beginnings in a resolution at the International union's Constitutional Convention in 2011. It endorsed the training and development of younger Steelworker activists to take on increasingly greater roles in their local unions, their governments and their communities. Since then, young and newer members of the USW across the United States and Canada have answered the call to become activists, and we're talking with three of them for our latest episode. They'll share how they became involved in their local unions, what they believe is currently driving young workers to organize, and why they believe the labor movement's future is bright because of the next generation's diversity.
