Workers at Baltimore Gas & Electric (BGE) ran several organizing campaigns with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), and we have Al Bankard and Bill Durkin, who participated in the early campaigns. In the 2000 campaign, BGE used "social media" to oppose the union, sending VHS cassettes to the homes of every worker. The union responded and the videos are unique labor history.
