What would it take to topple Amazon? To beat back the austerity budgets polarizing our city? To rebuild the labor movement? How is it possible to organize those without hope who are working on the margins?

John Womack’s new book Labor Power and Strategy explores these questions and more, and his lively, illuminating thoughts are built upon by ten labor organizers and educators. Join Philly native Gene Bruskin, one of those labor organizers, in conversation with local unionizing workers to discuss.
