  A few others from the past decade which were covered by the country's few remaining serious labor journalists. Some were also written about in books [1] or documented in film [2]. 2008: Puerto Rico teachers strike. 2008: Stella D'Oro strike. 2011: Occupy Oakland and unions shut down the port following a call for a general strike. 2012: Chicago teachers strike. 2012: Republic Windows and Doors strike and occupation. 2013: Fast food workers strike in 58 U.S. cities. There's an exciting younger generation of labor journalists, and a good way to keep tabs on what they are covering is through Dissent's podcast Belabored (feed at [3]).
