News Brief: Trump's Hollow Working Class Aesthetics and How Unions Can Lead a Real Resistance

After decades of union decline and rising inequality, an inspiring wave of workplace organizing—from Starbucks stores to Amazon warehouses to southern auto factories—has thrust unionization into the national spotlight. We Are the Union analyzes this surge and tells the stories of the courageous workers driving it forward. The book makes a case for how to overcome business as usual in both corporate America and organized labor by developing a new organizing model, worker-to-worker unionism, which builds scalable power by giving rank-and-filers an unprecedented degree of leadership. Through digital tools and ambitious campaigns, young worker leaders are turning the labor movement back into a movement—and they're winning.
