Join us for the next Labor Forward Forum featuring Frank Emspak, School for Workers emeritus faculty member, to discuss his new book Troublemaker: Saying No to Power. The forum is a free, online series held on the third Wednesday of the month from 12:00 to 12:30 p.m. Each month, a School for Workers faculty member will interview advocates of the labor/worker movement to highlight their important work, celebrate their progress, and learn from their unique experiences. This event is free, but pre-registration is required to receive the webinar link.
About Troublemaker: Saying No to Power
This is a book of life, the life of a unique figure within the US Left from the 1950s all the way into the early decades of the twenty-first century. It tells a story too little heard in the current outpouring of Baby Boomer memoirs. Frank Emspak’s journey connects the Old Left with the New Left, unions in the industrial era and beyond, and the struggle to communicate to a wide public with all the modern means available.
