SUMMARY:Book Talk with Steven Greenhouse
DESCRIPTION:  \n“From the longtime New York Times labor correspondent\, an in-depth look at working men and women in America\, the challenges they face\, and how they can be re-empowered. In an era when corporate profits have soared while wages have flatlined\, millions of Americans are searching for ways to improve their lives\, and they’re often turning to labor unions and worker action\, whether #RedforEd teachers’ strikes or the Fight for $15. Wage stagnation\, low-wage work\, and blighted blue-collar communities have become an all-too-common part of modern-day America\, and behind these trends is a little-discussed problem: the decades-long decline in worker power.Steven Greenhouse sees this decline reflected in some of the most pressing problems facing our nation today\, including income inequality\, declining social mobility\, the gender pay gap\, and the concentration of political power in the hands of the wealthy. He rebuts the often-stated view that labor unions are outmoded–or even harmful–by recounting some of labor’s victories\, and the efforts of several of today’s most innovative and successful worker groups.” \nCosponsored by: UCLA Labor Center \nRSVP Here
