The U.S. trade union movement finds itself today on a global
battlefield filled with landmines and littered with the bodies of
various social movements and struggles. Candid, incisive, and
accessible, "Solidarity Divided" is a critical examination of
labor's current crisis and a plan for a bold new way forward into
the twenty-first century. Bill Fletcher and Fernando Gapasin, two
longtime union insiders whose experiences as activists of color
grant them a unique vantage on the problems now facing U.S. labor,
offer a remarkable mix of vivid history and probing analysis. They
chart changes in U.S. manufacturing, examine the onslaught of
globalization, consider the influence of the environment on labor,
and provide the first broad analysis of the fallout from the 2000
and 2004 elections on the U.S. labor movement. Ultimately calling
for a wide-ranging re-examination of the ideological and structural
underpinnings of today's labor movement, this is essential reading
for understanding how the battle for social justice can be fought
and won.
