Rebellions and Strikes in the Roman Empire with Sarah Bond

This week, Dr. Sarah Bond joins Bible & Archaeology for a discussion about her new book "Strike" which takes a new look at the Roman history we think we know through a focus on work, labor, and collectives. From plebeians refusing to join the Roman army to bakers withholding bread, Dr. Bond explains how Roman workers used strikes, boycotts, riots, and rebellion to get their voices—and their labor—acknowledged.Buy Strike: https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300273144/strike/
