The New York City Labor Chorus (NYCLC) was the first group of its
kind when it formed in 1991 with members of different unions
joining together in song. Song, Struggle and Solidarity: The New
York City Labor Chorus in Its Twenty-fifth Year is the product of
Mark Abendroth’s ethnography on the NYCLC during its calendar
year from fall 2016 to spring 2017. Abendroth was in his sixth year
as an active member of the chorus at that time. He kept field notes
of nearly every NYCLC performance and weekly rehearsal during the
year. He also interviewed twenty-eight of the approximately
eighty-five members and studied documents in the group’s history.
Chapters include a history of singing in the labor movement in the
United States, a history of the NYCLC in its first twenty-four
years, and a focus on developments during the group’s
twenty-fifth year. The book ends with the author’s conclusions on
the NYCLC’s accomplishments, challenges, and possibilities.
