7:18 am
that comes from treaties that were signed with indigenous inhabitants of this land and were broken. >> reporter: this painting is a perfect example of, yes, it is a beautiful piece of art, but it tells a story, an american story -- not a pretty one, but it needs to be known. the museum's collection is now 3500 works, more than twice what it was a decade ago. so that the american story being told within its walls better mirrors the america outside. >> art has become a part of the d.n.a. of this community, and that's a huge transformation. >> reporter: for alice walton, crystal bridges is a work in progress. but one that illustrates the work of art. >> i don't really look at it like crystal bridges is responsible for this. but what i do look at is, if you were sitting around

>> works want respect. they want to be treated with dignity. i think you can see that really clearly in the story at staten island. they're treated like machines. >> reporter: in what ways are these work forces and these unions different from the old union factory efforts? >> what is different, i think, is the guys -- especially young workers who have lived through a lot of turmoil, they have these high expectations for what their work life is supposed to be about, and then they can't afford the rent. they may have a lot of student debt. they end up living with their parents. this is not what they were promised. the pandemic also created a labor shortage, which gave them more leverage. unions are cool against for this generation. >> reporter: for many of the workers at j.f.k. 8, chris smalls is definitely cool. one drove by during our interview and expressed his own thoughts on the unionization efforts.
