Sommario/riassunto |
|
Edited and with an afterword by George LipsitzBlue-collar intellectual and activist, Stan Weir devoted his life to the advocacy of his fellow workers. Singlejack Solidarity offers a rare look at life and social relations as seen from the factory, dockside, and the shop floor. Gathered here for the first time, Weir's writings-part memoir, labor history, and polemic-document a crucial chapter in the story of working-class America. |
