Organize Or Die by Mark Breslin Pdf

"This book proposes an innovative labor-management approach for union leaders, agents and organizers utilizing cooperation and mutual interest. With frank and compelling style, it emphasizes using top-down organizing, marketing and business development strategies up to, and including, closing the sale on non-union employers to re-energize organizing efforts. In today's market where harsh economic and political realities are determined by price, performance and results, this nontraditional book challenges organized labor to recapture lost market share and bring meaningful percentages back to the unionized sector."

Organize Or Die by Laura McClure Pdf

Ruth Reid thinks her old life is dead. She's abandoned her crappy career, her unavailable boyfriend, and her hopeless idealism. But just as she's settling into her new life, which involves a bottle of scotch, her cat, and her Brooklyn couch, she learns that her former colleague, the famed Victoria Shales, has been murdered in the middle of a major union organizing campaign. Against her better judgment, Ruth agrees to take Victoria's place and rescue the campaign — if she can. With the election clock ticking loudly, Ruth scrambles to pull together a ragtag group of workers who can help her outgun the company and outrun a pair of deadly thugs who also want her to take Victoria's place — in the cemetery. 'Sex, murder, politics, whisky, and very bad girls with good attitudes. Organize or Die is a great read that gives you a glimpse of union organizing subculture and the people who make it their lives and livelihood.' —Ed Ott, former executive director of the NYC Central Labor Council, Distinguished Lecturer in labor studies at City University of NY “McClure has written one for the 99 percent. Full of intrigue, suspense, and drama, Organize or Die exposes the joy — and, yes, the inherent risk — found in all hard-fought workplace organizing campaigns. The characters' commitment to workplace equity, as well as their good humor, are infectious.” —Eleanor J. Bader, author, Targets of Hatred

The Revival of Labor Liberalism by Andrew Battista Pdf

The Revival of Labor Liberalism is a careful analysis of the twentieth-century decline of the labor-liberal coalition and the important efforts to revive their political fortunes. Andrew Battista chronicles the efforts of several new political organizations that arose in the 1970s and 1980s with the goal of reuniting unions and liberals. Drawing from extensive documentary research and in-depth interviews with union leaders and political activists, Battista shows that the new organizations such as the Progressive Alliance, Citizen Labor Energy Coalition, and National Labor Committee made limited but real progress in reconstructing and strengthening the labor-liberal coalition. Although the labor-liberal alliance remained far weaker than the rival business-conservative alliance, Battista illuminates that it held a crucial role in labor and political history after 1968. Focuses on a fraught but evolving partnership, Battista provides a broad analysis of factional divisions among both unions and liberals and considers the future of unionism and the labor-liberal coalition in America.

After the Rebellion by Sekou M. Franklin Pdf

Franklin argues that the political environment in the post-Civil Rights era, along with constraints on social activism, made it particularly difficult for young black activists to start and sustain popular mobilization campaigns.Building on case studies from around the country--including New York, the Carolinas, California, Louisiana, and Baltimore--After the Rebellion explores the inner workings and end results of activist groups such as the Southern Negro Youth Congress, Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, the Student Organization for Black Unity, the Free South Africa Campaign, the New Haven Youth Movement, the Black Student Leadership Network, the Juvenile Justice Reform Movement, and the AFL-CIO's Union Summer campaign.

The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning by Margareta Magnusson Pdf

*The basis for the wonderfully funny and moving TV series developed by Amy Poehler and Scout Productions* A charming, practical, and unsentimental approach to putting a home in order while reflecting on the tiny joys that make up a long life. In Sweden there is a kind of decluttering called döstädning, dö meaning “death” and städning meaning “cleaning.” This surprising and invigorating process of clearing out unnecessary belongings can be undertaken at any age or life stage but should be done sooner than later, before others have to do it for you. In The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, artist Margareta Magnusson, with Scandinavian humor and wisdom, instructs readers to embrace minimalism. Her radical and joyous method for putting things in order helps families broach sensitive conversations, and makes the process uplifting rather than overwhelming. Margareta suggests which possessions you can easily get rid of (unworn clothes, unwanted presents, more plates than you’d ever use) and which you might want to keep (photographs, love letters, a few of your children’s art projects). Digging into her late husband’s tool shed, and her own secret drawer of vices, Margareta introduces an element of fun to a potentially daunting task. Along the way readers get a glimpse into her life in Sweden, and also become more comfortable with the idea of letting go.

Die Nigger Die! by H. Rap Brown (Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin) Pdf

More than any other black leader, H. Rap Brown, chairman of the radical Black Power organization Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), came to symbolize the ideology of black revolution. This autobiography—which was first published in 1969, went through seven printings and has long been unavailable—chronicles the making of a revolutionary. It is much more than a personal history, however; it is a call to arms, an urgent message to the black community to be the vanguard force in the struggle of oppressed people. Forthright, sardonic, and shocking, this book is not only illuminating and dynamic but also a vitally important document that is essential to understanding the upheavals of the late 1960s. University of Massachusetts professor Ekwueme Michael Thelwell has updated this edition, covering Brown's decades of harassment by law enforcement agencies, his extraordinary transformation into an important Muslim leader, and his sensational trial.
