Bob,

I just read your book and wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed it and learned from it. As a young person, the rich historical analysis really helped me to contextualize the current movement. I can see better how different organizations fit in- and what the strengths are of each. Your analysis of the trajectory of union busting was made with extreme clarity. I know that I have become a better teacher because of it. You address worker power and the attack by corporations and government upon that power. There has come a point where in certain struggles- consumers and students are all that workers have as a tool to fight back. It shouldn’t be like that.

I was also touched by the thorough research- but at the same time the accessibility that is absent in much of academia. This is truly a “movement” book that I will recommend to USAS students and others to learn about the history of worker struggle and what solidarity has meant and what it can mean.

Thanks,
