The labor movement in the United States is a bulwark of democracy
and a driving force for social and economic equality. Yet its
stories remain largely unknown to Americans. Robert Forrant and
Mary Anne Trasciatti edit a collection of essays focused on
nationwide efforts to propel the history of labor and working
people into mainstream narratives of US history. In Part One, the
contributors concentrate on ways to collect and interpret
worker-oriented history for public consumption. Part Two moves from
National Park sites to murals to examine the writing and visual
representation of labor history. Together, the essayists explore
how place-based labor history initiatives promote understanding of
past struggles, create awareness of present challenges, and support
efforts to build power, expand democracy, and achieve justice for
working people. A wide-ranging blueprint for change, Where Are the
Workers? shows how working-class perspectives can expand our
historical memory and inform and inspire contemporary activism.
