Description ▲
Fight or Be Slaves, the title taken from a statement by C.L. Dellums, Oakland's vice president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, sets East Bay labor history in context of national events using extensive primary and secondary sources. Sensitive to issues of class, race, and gender, Fight or Be Slaves is filled with vignettes that bring to life the story of workers in struggle.
