Embedded with Organized Labor: new book by UALE member Steve Early

Embedded with Organized Labor: Journalistic Reflections on the Class War at Home by UALE member, former CWA organizer, labor journalist, and lawyer Steve Early is a collection of essays written from the point of view of a  journalist who is also a participant in the struggles he describes.

The book  deals with the dilemmas of union radicalism, the obstacles to institutional change within organized labor, and strategies for securing workers’ rights in the new global economy. It also addresses questions hotly debated among union activists and friends of labor, including workers’ rights as human rights, new forms of worker organization such as worker centers, union democracy, cross-border solidarity, race, gender, and ethnic divisions in the working class, and the lessons of labor history.
